Change default font of yellow comments boxes?

I can't figure out how to change the default font of the yellow comments boxes. Can anyone help? Seems there must be a way, because the font that is currently selected is unusual, which means I must have chosen it some time in the past. But I've forgotten how I did it.

I solve this problem by myself:
There are three properties in UIManager ralated to the font rendered in JOptionPane, So I use the code below to change fonts in JOptionPane:
UIManager.put("OptionPane.font", font);
UIManager.put("OptionPane.messageFont", font);
UIManager.put("OptionPane.buttonFont", font);
I found those properties in the source code of JFC. We can unwrap the src.zip which is released with JDK. To a specific Component, there is at lease one corresponding UI class, which are the subclass of javax.swing.plaf.ComponentUI. For example, to find the properties used to JOptionPane, we should open BasicOptionPaneUI.java, which is the subclass of OptionPaneUI.
Wish this may help other developers.

    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

    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.

  • How to change default text properties and text box properties

    I'm adding text to a PDF document by using the text box tool. The default is to put a border around the box and also the font is red and larger than I'd like. I think I found how to change the default box properties (so it has no boarder).
    For the text/font, I can pull up a menu to change the font properties, but so far I'm having to do this for each box I create. One workaround is to cut and paste new text boxes with the formatting I want, but I still want to know how can I set the defaults to the font, size and color of text I want?
    I'm using AA 8 Professional
    Best, David

    This is one of Acrobat's less intuitive areas!
    For defaults, right-click on the text box that is as you want it: then select menu item 'Make current properties default'
    Use Ctrl-E to bring up the Properties toolbar: its content will change depending on whether you have the box or the text selected, and selecting the box or text can be a bit clunky.

  • Default Font for new Comments

    Is there any way to set the default font applied to all new comments?
    Just curious.

    Steve Werner wrote:
    Open the Text Wrap panel and select the default text wrap.
    Big Warning here: If you set a default text wrap this way, it applies to ALL objects, not just images, so your new text frames will also have text wrap applied to them. This is generally NOT what you want.
    A better option would be to create an object style that includes the text wrap and apply it to your image frames. Unfortunately there is an oddity with ID and frames drawn with the Frame tools (the ones with the X in them). No matter what you specify for an object style, as soon as the frame is drawn it switches to the [None] object style and loses any stroke, fill or text wrap that you might have chosen. This is apparently hard-coded into ID and cannot be changed by the user except by following the procedure below.
    You can work around it in two ways: For frames that you draw and then put images into, use the Shape tools instead (the ones without the X). They respect object styles or locally set defaults for fill, stroke and text wrap, and there is no functional difference between shapes and frames other than the default content type (no content for shapes). They can hold graphical content or text content, or no content just by your choice of what you do with them. For placing images without an existing frame, create a new Object Style named "Place Gun Frame" (without the quotes) and set your parameters in that style. All placed images that have no pre-existing frame will automatically use this style instead of [None] regardless of what other settings you might have chosen.
    Or you can just apply your text wrap object style to each frame as you go, but that's not much better than applying the wrap over and over.

  • Unable to change default font in Themes

    I have been trying unsuccessfully to change the default font in a theme. When I change the font in one of the master slides and click the Format/Advanced menu item, the "Save as Default for Current Theme" is grayed out, as all all the other options in the Advanced menu. I've tried the same thing from a slide in the presentation [not a master slide] and the same thing occurs.
    Any ideas as to what is going on and how I can access this command? Otherwise I'll have to go through each and every master slide and make the change [and that might still not work]. Thanks for any help.

    How to cahnge all fon'ts in windows 8.1 to Tahoma 8 for example?

    This is supposed to be a better program than Win 8.
    Did someone from Microsoft Marketing tell you that?  Maybe a fanboy?  :)
    In all seriousness it's not better in any obvious way than Win 8, nor is it really any better than Win 7.  It can be tweaked to be just about as good.  And to be fair, it's stable.
    I mean yes, we all expected Win 8.1 to be better than its predecessors
    - software releases are supposed to give you some value, some good reason to upgrade - but that kind of goes away when the software maker feels they have a captive audience as Microsoft does, and especially when they still have plenty of businesses
    buying Win 7, which pays their bills.
    But like it or not, removed choices or not, apparently Windows 8 is here to stay.  Joshua up above says "You fail", but have they really?  Once you're patching it up to make it usable they've already got your license fee, and your
    alternatives to running Windows are what, exactly?

  • How to change default fonts in Indesign

    I've tried the usual recommended steps - open InDesign, select a font, then close the program, etc. -- but nothing seems to work. Every style reverts to MetaPlus. Help!

    Respectfully, I've tried this, and I'm not looking for suggested working solutions as I have a pretty clear understanding of how to set defaults and how to utilize paragraph styles.  I'm simply pointing out that contrary to what you're saying, setting the font in the character palette does NOT change the true default font in my experience (CS4, OS10.4.11). I do understand that the default is set with no documents open by then selecting the font in the character palette.
    I'm attaching 2 screen shots to show you that I'm not making this up.  In the first you can hopefully see I've clearly set the "default" to Arial now.
    In the second I've created a new document and a new paragraph style. You can see it already considers "Arial" as deviating from the base "No Paragraph Style" and if you click on "Reset to Base" you will see that sure enough, the true default font is still Geneva (Geneva in my case as outlined in my previous post).
    Generally, this isn't much of a problem. As you've all pointed out we can accept that these additions are the new default for a new paragraph style, but it really isn't changing the true default font. Depending on your working environment and the experience of the designers this may be good enough. For my environment I'm looking for the ability to change the true default font and the only solution I've come across is the one from my previous post (deleting preferences).

  • How to change default font in Thunderbird interface

    I know this question has been asked and discussed at length, but creating a question appears to be the only way to create an account. If there is another way, please tell.
    To the question at hand, relying on an add-on for a simple configuration change such as modifying the UI font is really stretching things. I spent ages trolling through all the options in the default installation, and then went googling before I eventually found the add-on.
    I'm surprised it took so long to get the actual message across; perhaps it was ppl thinking differently, using different OSes, I don't know, but I recognized it straight away because it was exactly what I was trying to do. Change the font of the entire UI so that I could actually read it. The default is way too small for me. Changing the message text, etc., is simple; changing the entire UI is not. And again, don't want to change every app, only Thunderbird. I'm using Fedora 21.
    It might be worth considering that if so many ppl ask the same question, or have the same issue, then it might be worth making the "extension" part of the base functionality.

    Use the Theme Font Size Changer add-on.
    That's the answer, unless you choose to fiddle with css coding. I think Thunderbird's design has been caught out by newer high resolution displays. This was a rather less common request a few years ago. The mac retina displays got this particular ball rolling.

  • How to change default font in Photoshop CS5

    Is there a simple way to change the default font from Felix Tilting to Verdana in Photoshop CS5

    The character palette will remember the last font you used with any of the text tools. If it doesn't, then something is afoot, but your rather vague post doesn't allow any specific pointers. If you have issues, you need to explain nad provide some system info and so on...
