Can We Make the Default Icon Size Smaller?

The subject is the question. If we could reduce the icon size we could get more tham a 4x6 icon matrix on the screen.

After a bit of research I found you cannot reduce the size from Apple default size.  However you can increase the icon size using the Zoom option in Settings>General>Accessibility

    How can I make the pdf file size smaller?

    Hi vickyb,
    Reducing the file size of PDF requires Acrobat (one way is by choosing File > Save As > Reduced Size PDF). If you don't have Acrobat, you can try it free for 30 days. See www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.

  • What is the default icon size for macbook pro 13 inch?

    I have the 13 inch macbook pro, its not the retina. What is the default icon size for it? I accidently changed it on the show view options.

    The default size is not related to the Mac Model, it's related to the OS X version. For Snow Leopard it's 48x48 pixels.
    For Lion and Mountain Lion it's 64x64.
    You can choose the size that is right for you. I typically use either 32x32 or 36x36. Some prefer larger some prefer smaller. It's up to you.
    I've always found the default sizes to be too big for my taste.

    Thanks!

    Yes indeed, and Photoshop CC 2014 is the only version with that option.

    why not? use LiteIcon then. it's free and is MUCH safer than mucking with system files by hand. if you insist you can do it as follows. go to /system/library/coreservices. control-click on coretypes.bundle and select "show package contents". go to contents-> resources. change the file GenericFolderIcon.icns with your own .icns file. back up the original bundle first.

  • How can I change the default page size for the Adobe PDF Printer?

    Hello All,
    I have cases where I need to switch the default paper size from 8.5x11 to 11x17 via api for the Adobe PDF Printer and have not been able to find how this can be accomplished.
    I am using C# .Net and would appreciate any help.
    Thanks in advance,
    Bob

    There is no Acrobat API for this, but so far as I know there doesn't need to be. The user can go change this from the Printers Control panel as needed. The Adobe PDF printer has some differences from regular printer drivers, but this isn't one of them.

  • I just upgraded my OS to "Lion" and would like to make the Mail icons/lettering smaller. Can anyone tell me how to do that?

    How does one make Mail icons smaller?

    Howdy jandbfy,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re interested in changing the icon size in Mail for Mac OS X Lion. The article linked below provides information about customizing the sidebar in Mail and will walk you through the process of changing the icon size.
    Lion Mail: Show or hide the sidebar
    To adjust the size of the icons in the sidebar, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click General, and then select a sidebar icon size.
    Also, you may be intersted in this article which provides details about customizing the toolbar in Mail.

  • How can you lock the desktop icon size?

    On my Macbook Pro (10/6.7) the icons on the desktop sometimes change size. I'm not doing anything deliberate to cause this. When the icons change size, I can use View Options to make them the right size again, but it's a pain to have to keep doing that, especially since some icons don't always return to their original positions on the desktop. Is there any to prevent the desktop icons from changing size?

    They shrink when you're on the desktop and "pinch" two fingers on the trackpad closer together.  If you "spread" two fingers apart, they'll get bigger.
    You can disable in System Preferences > trackpad > Two Fingers > uncheck Pinch Open & Close.

  • How can I shrink the track icon size?

    Why is the the first track icon in the orchestral template ginormous while the rest are small and how can I shrink it?

    Hi
    In that template, the AutoZoom function is on so the selected track will be larger than the others.
    Turn it off using the (default) button in the ToolBar, or use the (default) key command Control-Z

  • When I insert my memory card iPhoto opens. How can I make the default program Preview?

    When I insert my memory card from my camera, iPhoto opens. How can I make Preview the default?

    Denny,
    Open Image Capture which is located in your Applications Folder.
    Connect your device to your computer, then turn the device on.If the device is locked with a passcode, enter it.
    Select the device in the Devices list.
    Choose Image Capture from the “Connecting this [device] opens” pop-up menu.Click “Show device settings” if you don’t see that pop-up menu.

  • How can I make the default action for Real Player (etc.) to be not to play?

    While browsing with Mozilla, I would prefer not to have videos play unless I start the video. This goes for commercials or any video.
    Is there a preference to set this? If not, can you make one that does that?

    By default plugins.click_to_play should be default set to true. However, please also contact Apple support to make sure that this is expected.
    If there is not an option to override this, it is also possible to set the preference in about:plugins:

  • Can I change the default page size for SYSBUILD?

    When I start SYSBUILD it always has a default page size of Letter set, is there any way to change this as most of the blocks I wish to print are to be printed on A3 paper?
    Many thanks
    Tim

    Hi Tim,
    Unfortunately there is no option to change the default print settings for SystemBuild. You must manually select the A3 paper size under File>>Page Setup.
    Thanks for the suggestion though, I will pass that on to R&D as a product suggestion for a future release.

  • How can i make the Aperature type size larger?

    I use Aperature and find the type face very small and want to find a user setting to make it larger. Anybody know how to do this?

    i am using the method Kirby suggested - change the resolution of the display to "scaled", otherwise it would be impossible for me to read anything in the Inspector panel.
    But the severe drawback is, that this reduces the resolution of the images shown in the Viewer as well, and the photos will look less sharp. So you will have to toggle between screen resolutions,  or connect a second display for the viewer with a better resolution setting.
    Or set up the "zoom" controls in the "System preferences > Accessibility" Preferences. This will let you zoom in on parts of the screen.
      None of these work-arounds is satisfactory.  Please use the feedback form that Frank Caggiano linked to and send feedback. Personally, I'd send this using the "Report a problem with Aperture" and not as a feature request.  After all, this is a usuability problem, if you are not able to read any text, unless you scale down the image resolution as well.

  • How can I change the default window size of a new message permanently?

    The mail window opens up very small and every time I must increase the size manually. I want to be able to set it so it opens larger or at least opens to the saem size as a previous mail window, which is what Mail used to do.
    Also, can anyone tell me how to stop that new mail window from opening on the bottom left of my screen? I need to move it in orde to increase the window size. So, 2 default actions that are a psin to constantly deal with.
    Is there any guru out there who has had this problem and solved it? Thanks!

  • Can I change the default text sizes in the Character Menu?

    At my last job I used a program called Creator to create the projects for which I now use InDesign.  In Creator there was a section in the Preferences that allowed you to specify what font sizes were in the drop down menu, but I don't see such a setting in InDesign.  Its not a huge deal, but its nice to have, say 20pt in your drop down menu as a type size if you use that particular size a lot, as opposed to typing it in every time.  Does anyone know if there is a way to do this?  Thanks!!

    Thanks Bob, I didn't think of that, I suppose that would work.  Basically I would just like to have more text sizes to choose from in the drop down menu, I guess its more an issue of laziness on my part than anything else.  I could make a character style for it, but then I'd probably have 10 different character styles just to change the size of my text when it would be less hassle just to type in the size I need.  I was just looking for a quick fix default option that I was used to having at my old job.
