Change font size in iMessage in the communication pane, for IOS 6

I am getting older, and I would like to increase the font size of text in iMessage.
The double tap zoom function does not work in this program.
Any suggestions ?
I am sure that i am not the only one that can not always find his glasses.
Thanks in advance
Michiel

Go to Settings/General/Accessibility.
Select Large Text.
There isn't a way to currently set the font size on an app basis.  This setting is a global change and applies to any app that recognizes the setting.
P.S.  The Developer forum is for technical questions regarding non-Apple apps.  We can't help with how Apple's apps work.  There is a new forum that would have been perfect for your question:  https://discussions.apple.com/community/accessibility/vision?view=discussions
I wonder why nobody has posted anything there?

  • Screen size and font size unreadable to set the access permissions for Flash Player.

    I can increase my screen view size to make everything appear larger but the screen on Adobe website to manage the use of the Flash Player has very tiny writing that DOES NOT increase in size when I increase the size of my screen view.  It is not use user friendly nor compliant with common standards of web pages being accessible for people who have visual disablilities.  The font size looks like 6pt.
    What does it take to make this giant company allow the window size of the settings to be enlarged or magnified? 

    They will stay on the screen.  However, Process Monitor is only intended for advanced users.  It is recommended that users try to navigate to the troublesome registry key using regedit, and see if they can access it or not without an error.  This is far easier than trying to use Process Monitor, which is very complicated.
    I used Process Monitor to confirm that it was just that key which was causing the problem, and not others.  Process Monitor is not to be confused with the new Resource Monitor which is accessible via Task Manager in Windows 7 (and possibly Vista).  If you must experiment (and Process Monitor is very useful for diagnosing many deep-level problems if you know what you're looking for) Process Monitor can be downloaded from here:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645
    It replaces the older Sysinternals "FileMon" and "RegMon".  For those interested in the technical side, I had to setup a number of filters to be able to get the results display as in the screenshot.  First of all to just show Registry events.  Then to just show events from the manual Flash activeX installer executable.  The I added a filter to show only non-successfull results.  And finally, for the purposes of the screenshot, added a filter to just show those with "Access Denied", since other non-critical errors are also picked up due to missing keys because installation has not yet been fully completed I guess.   When experimenting, most of these filters were applied using the "is not" boolean logic, which will make sense if you experiment with the program.
    Without adding any filters, it picks up so many events (hundreds per second) that it's otherwise unusable.  e.g. 40,000 events within the first few seconds of opening the program. For this reason, I recommend simply using Regedit to diagnose the problem with the particular Flash registry key.

    Maybe, but you are asking in the Camera Raw forum, so I might be excused for not being telepathic.

  • A mode to change font size and bold in every page?

    Due to problems described here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1012057?esab=a&s=&r=0&as=s I have clear that I need something (an extension, maybe) that allow me to recognize and change font size and bold of the fonts in every page.
    Does exist something like this?
    Maybe also for bookmarks toolbar...

    Hi RichterB,
    You can change this in the Content Settings of Firefox. Go to "3 bar" menu and click on Options. Click on content and uncheck "Let websites choose their own styles" and select a bold font type.
    Also try [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/ Sytlish].

  • How to change font size in Safari?

    Why is it when I set my fonts inside Safari to say, 18 for standard and 18 for fixed. It doesn't display that way. I keep getting the tiny font that I've always used.

    The font size you specify in the Preferences (18 for standard) will be used only if the font size is not specified by the web page. Nowadays most of webpages (including this Discussions) specify fonts and sizes to use in the CSS file, and the setting in the Preferences will be ignored.
    As andyBall writes, you can set the minimum size of fonts in Safari-Preferences-Advanced. But the results may not satisfy you (wrong line spacings etc.).
    In the same Preferences, you can specify your own CSS file, as explained in the following post by Tom Gewecke:
    Re: Setting default font size doesn't stick
    But here again, line spacings etc. are not adjusted correctly. To write a detailed personal CSS file by yourself is very tedious, if not impossible.
    As you might know, you can enlarge the fonts (and spacings) by hitting "command +" (press-hold the command key and hit the + key, or the = key; it seems you need not to press the shift key). I will be very pleased if someone tells me how to make this "enlarged" state the default.

  • My typewriter toolbar is graying out the ability to change font size, type, and color.

    My typewriter toolbar is graying out the ability to change font size, type, and color.

    Here's what I have done in the past. Maybe not elegant, but
    it works. (I
    use PHP, but I'm sure you can modify for ASP.)
    In the HEAD of each web page, include regular old embedded
    STYLE tags,
    but INCLUDE an external PHP file:
    <head>
    <style type="text/css">
    <?php include('styles/testcss.php'); ?>
    </style>
    </head>
    Now in that included PHP file, just have CSS code which pulls
    in your
    dynamic data. Here's an example snippet:
    body {
    color: #600;
    background-color: <?php echo
    $row_recordset['bgcolor'];?>
    Of course, you'll need the code for the recordset somewhere
    too.

  • How to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?

    hi All
    That's great when using SQL Dev.
    But I also have a trouble that how to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?
    My users think that font in result screen is shown very small, and whenever the data in each colum is long then it's not shown full data in column, they must double click for extend the size. Have the option to default the max size for showing full data in each column ? I try but still not to do that .
    Appreciate for anyone to help us.
    Thanks all.
    Sigmasvn

    You can't change the font for the results screen yet, however you will be able to select an auto-fit option for selected columns, so if some columns have slitghtly wider text you'll be able to set the column widths to handle these wider columns.
    Also, there s the option of switching the layout of a record in the grid.

  • I am pulling my hair out! I am using adobe indesign and just want to make a text box 'autofit text' as I change fonts a lot and want the font to automatically re-size as I change it. help help help please - I have latest version of indesign - thanks

    I am pulling my hair out! I am using adobe indesign and just want to make a text box 'autofit text' as I change fonts a lot and want the font to automatically re-size as I change it.
    Is it not possible to create a text box, fill it with dynamic (data driven) text, but make the font size either scale up or down automatically, so that the entire text box is filled? This is a feature in PrintShop Mail Pro called COPY FIT. but no such feature in Indesign??
    help help help please - I have latest version of indesign - thanks, DJ

    lol... it seems to work, but I have another huge problem!
    Apparently .CSV files cannot contain page breaks in the data! The data I am trying to merge is a 'letter', with paragraphs, line breaks, etc.,
    But, after data merging, it ignores page breaks and only merges the first paragraph of each letter. (sigh)
    Solution? Hopefully, an EASY solution. lol as we have thousands of records.
    Is there a third party indesign plugin that will allow .xml, or .xls data merge import??
    Thx,
    DJ

  • Changing font size of the button

    Hi,
    how can it be changed font size of the button (other than standard and small)?
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    You can create a separate Theme to change or modify the properties of UI elements and can use it in your application. You should have System Admin role assigned in the portal.
    Goto System Admin-> POrtal Display -> Theme Editor select any of the standard theme and change it to as per your requirement and save your theme with different name.
    In webdynpro you can not change the font size of button. Hope this helps

  • How do i change font sizes and colors in ical in OS Lion.  Everything is greyed and too small.   And how do I changed the color of the scroll bars, which are now invisible?

    how do i change font sizes and colors in ical in OS Lion. Since upgrading,  all fonts are grey, instead of black,  and too small.   And how do I changed the color of the scroll bars, which also are grey and almost invisible?  And if you can asnwer this, can you tell me how to get back the email format I had before the upgrade?  I no longer have column headings and I'd like them.  Thank you. 

    Do you know about changing the font colors for ical, and the color of the scroll bars?
    No, I don't. I don't use that program; I fiddled with it just now, and could not find a way to do that.
    Perhaps someone else will have an idea.

  • How do I change font size on the safari tool bar

    How do I change font size on the safari tool bar

    You can't in Safari.
    However you CAN with Firefox and the add-on called Theme Font & Size Changer, also include NoSquint and set a global web page zoom level a bit higher, say 150%.
    NoSquint has buttons on the tool bar to increase/decrease each websites size AND IT REMEMBERS IT!
    Under the Tools Menu > Customize you can add more toolbars as well, but they have to have something in it of course.
    (note: the green with yellow type is a person you can add from thousands of choices, it's not the default look of Firefox)
    So this setup, although it may appear large here compared to Safari, is fine on my 17" when sitting back about 3-4 feet, takes up about 1/6th of the screen, so I'm not hunched up close, and I have a lot of screen real estate to play with anyway.

  • How to change font size of text inside a "text box" form the Drawing Markups?

    Hi,
    I expected there to be an option to change the font size after I selected the text and right-clicked, but no, there is only one option that allows you to change the text style but not the font size.
    Does anyone know how to change the font size?

    Don't know what the e-mail is about, why not just log into the forums. In any case, it does not sound like a text box, but one of the other text options (like the Typewriter tool). The regular text edit tool allows you to edit the text and fonts in a regular text box. Select the box and use ctrl-E. You may have to select the text edit tool (name changed in AAX) first. Such editing is not really recommended. Editting in Acrobat should be limited to simple changes, and those often become a pain. The best method of fixing the problem is in the original document and then creating a new PDF.
