24pt Font Size Tab Text for JTabbedPane

I'm creating an app for use with Touchscreens and need to make the buttons and such, large enough to fit the tip of a finger.
I'm having trouble with the JTabbedPane font size and am having trouble finding a way to make the text in the tab larger.
Same issue with text in a border. Just for looks but would be nice.
And the text in the window title.
I've searched the forums and the tutorials but couldn't find anything. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Hi,
the text in the window's title is managed by the underlying OS. So, I guess there is no possibility to influence this text. Except you change the display properties of the OS on this computer that runs your app.
Regards,
Patrick

  • Apple Mail font size too small for father

    My father just purchased a iMac with Mountain Lion OS and a 27 inch screen.
    My father needs to be able to read the text of the AppleMail window.
    We have increased the size of the fonts to 18 to make it easy for him to see what he is typing in the email editing window, however, none of the other display fonts in AppleMail increase.
    The increase in font size is intended by Apple to provide an Accomodation to provide Equal Access for those with Sight Disabilities to the Essential Functions of use, however, this intent appears to have failed within AppleMail.
    Would a different mail reader (gmail, etc) provide this font sizing ability?
    Requested Remedy:
    Provide the ability to increase font size for all of the AppleMail display.

    'Preferences' doesn't solve the problem, since it only alters the font size of text for a single message, and doesn't alter the Mailbox Pane or Message Panes.
    The Mailbox Pane is enlarged outside Mail, using the System Preference's 'General' setting for Sidebar Icon size - this also alters sidebar text size.
    And the Message List is enlarged most easily by a Terminal command
    - it's only a single line, cut'n'paste:
    defaults write com.apple.mail RichMessageList -bool FALSE
    Then restart Mail and adjust its column sizes for the newly enlarged fonts.
    This thread gives a full discussion of this solution and its clumsier alternatives:

  • How to change the font size of Text Box  Properties Appearance tab into 2 decimal digit.

    How to change the font size of Text Box  Properties Appearance tab into 2 decimal digit. I am uanble to modify it to 5.38 pt for example. Its only allowing to 1 decimal place.

    Click on each field and the choose Properties from either File menu (or if on Mac hold dow mouse button until context menu appears choose properties)
    go to Font
    choose desired size and type font,you can choose to make this the default.
    Do this with each field.
    Or if you have a lot of fields:
    while one is selected select all of them
    then go to fonts in properties
    change Font and size and make default.

  • Set-up custom font, font size, and color for writing new and reply e-mails in Thunderbird

    I know that I can select the font, size, and color for writing each new and reply e-mails in Thunderbird, but I don't want to have to do this each time. I want to set-up the default font, size, and color for all new and reply e-mails. It already comes up with a default one, but I want to change it, but can't figure out how to do this. I'm sure it is quite simple, but I don't know how to do this. Thank you in advance for help.

    Tools > Options > Display > Formatting tab
    Default font: select font
    Select size : eg; 14
    Click on 'Advanced' button and set all the sizes to 14
    Select : 'allow messages to use other fonts'
    click on OK
    Click on 'Composition'
    Under the 'General' tab
    Suggest you set HTML font to 'Variable width' and Size : 'Medium'
    Select the 'Text colour' you would like to compose email using
    Select the 'Background colour' you would like to use when composing emails.
    click on OK to save all changes.
    This will set the display email list to the selected font.
    It will allow received emails to use the font the sender used.
    When you compose an email it will also use the same font settings.
    The message 'Display' settings in the above section also apply to messages that you compose. The settings are not sent, so they do not affect how your messages appear to recipients.
    The settings in the ''Composition' section can affect how messages are sent. If you make unusual choices, then people who receive messages from you might find them difficult or impossible to read. Hence, why I suggest you leave it as 'Variable width' and allow the 'Display' settings to set the default used for composing emails.

  • How to change the font size of text element in smartform

    Hi
    i want to know how to change the font size of text element in smartform
    regards
    Gincy

    Hi
    You can create Smartstyles, in which you can define paragraph formats for texts and character formats for character level changes.
    Paragraph format ---> alignment, font size etc
    character format for ---> superscript, subscript.
    After creating, in your smartform, there will be a option in the text element to enter a style.
    You give the created style and you can use the paragraph and character formats i that style.
    Hope this is clear..

  • How Change Font or Font Size in Text Box???

    How do I Change the Font or Font Size in Text Box that I have inserted in a previously created .pdf file.
    Could not find any info on this in Help file. Thanks for any help.

    Use the text touchup tool, select the text, and right click to change the properties. If you mean a different type of text box, then look for the same type of changes, but use the same tool you used to create the text.

  • How to change the font size of Text box tool ?

    How to change the font size of Text box tool ?
    I am using Acrobat PDF 6.0
    Tools > Advanced Commenting > Text Box Tool
    I need to know how to change the font size. The default font size is too big.
    let me know
    Thanks

    I do not have AA6 available right now (I can check at home this evening). I am also using AA Pro, not Std. In AA7, there is a text box tool that is a commenting tool. When I started typing, a properties toolbar came up that had the font size and such. I haven't figured out how to get the toolbar after the fact. In AA8, I selected the text box tool and then went to view and selected the properties bar (the font size and all showed then), or use Ctrl-E when editing the text. I have not been able to figure out how to edit the text in a text box after you have created it - think it is a mental block right now. Bill

  • Font size in text fields

    Is there a way to change the font size in a text box or text field on every webpage through one of the prefrences? I have looked on the forums here and searched Google, but could not find any answers.
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    One other thought,
    You can temporarily increase/decrease the font size on any page (also, affects all pages opened in a specific tab) by Apple Key plus the + sign for an increase, or the - sign for smaller text.
    Same too can be accomplished by using the "text size" icon in the toolbar. If one is not there, go to the View Menu>Customize Address Bar, dragging the "text size" icon to the tool bar. Select "done" on the panel.

  • Font size of text too big on a mobile... why ?

    Hello, I use Muse CC 2014.
    I have the following problem:
    When I create a wide text area, and I write a few lines of text, when I look at the result on a mobile device (with Chrome for example, on Samsung Galaxy S4), in landscape mode all goes well, but in portrait mode, the text size becomes BIGGER !
    Therefore not possible to create a correct layout ...
    How to make the text size remains the same in portrait or landscape mode on a mobile device?
    Thank you very much
    Robin Weber

    znico,
    I am also having this same problem and I have a thread on it here [Font size larger than it should be in mobile version]. It also happens on my S4 on Chrome. It has been an ongoing issue on the sites I design where I'll put the text box inside of a colored box for instance and in other devices the text fits inside the box but in Chrome/S4 the text extends beyond the box. I tried viewing it in Firefox for Android and the text seems to render as it should. I'm guessing it has something to do with the way the S4 or Chrome is rendering the text. I have not had the time to check but I'm also wondering if it has anything to do with fonts from TypeKit as opposed to web safe fonts. What font type are you using in your design?

  • How to change the font size of text element?

    Hi Experts,
    The font size shows in the view is too small, is there any way to make it bigger?
    Thanks for your time!
    Anna

    Hi Anna,
    depending on the UI element there are a range of ways. (and I'm sure people will post plenty of answers to tell you how).
    However, if generically the fonts in you portal/wd applications are too small, you should consider changing your theme so as to have larger texts. Otherwise you will either need to customise all your applications, or you will get quite a lot of inconsistency of presentation between your various WDA applications.
    Do a search on "themes for Web Dynpro ABAP" and you'll find loads of resources.
    Hope this helps,
    Cheers,
    Chris

    This should NOT work!  The UI elements should safe encode all input values - thereby eliminating the value of any HTML tags. If you system isn't doing this already then it is a bug and if you rely on such a thing it will stop working at some point in the future.
    You are basically restricted to different values available via the design parameter.  The overall font sizes come from the underlying themes and the client applications (browser or NetWeaver Business Client) that host the Web Dynpro Application.  Therefore no direct specification of the font size is possible in order to stay within the controls of theme.  If you don't like any of the designs available, you might consider altering the Portal Theme you are using - but that is a rather drastic approach.

  • Font Size in iTunes for iTunes 9

    Roughly this question is frequently posted, but I've not found an answer for iTunes 9.
    Like many others, I need to increase the font size in the iTune display (of track names, artists, etc.), and the large setting in the iTunes preferences doesn't increase it enough for me to read it comfortably.
    1. Is there by now an easy fix for this?
    2. If not, what file would I need to edit and what changes would I need to make in it (backing it up and using an editor like emacs or the like)? I only need to change font size? -- Thanks, CS

    If, after changing the iTunes font size to "large", it still isn't big enough for you, you can increase it further by using my free iTunes font-size editor. You can download it here:
    http://www.pobox.com/~teridon/ituneshacks/index.html
    The editor works by making changes to an iTunes font resource file. It makes backups of the file, in case something goes wrong (never happened, as far as I know...).
    NOTE: Changing the Font resource file requires Administrator privileges, or write permission to the C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\en.lproj directory.
    The forum TOS requires me to say: "I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link" because I have a paypal donation link on my webpage, but the program is free (donation totally optional).
