Changing default interface font size has no effect

Just setup my shiny new iMac with 5K retina display. Images in Lightroom, of course, look stunning on the display. Problem is that all the interface elements are now displayed at a very small size. I've tried setting the font size in Preferences/Interface to "Large", but nothing changes. Any suggestions? With the increasing use of 4K and now 5K displays, I'd think being able to set a more easily readable font size for the interface elements (while still displaying images in all they retina-resolution goodness) would be an important option to have. Thanks.,

Lightroom 5 the font sizes changed to Small, Medium, Large 150% and Largest 200% (the last one is what you want for QHD displays.)
LR4 only had 3 font size choices (Auto,Small and Large) and does not support QHD/4K displays.

Change of Min Pool Size has no effect?

Hi, we are still using odp 9.2.0.4 on windows server 2003 webserver and oracle database 9i on Sun solaris. Recently we discovered a problem using Min Pool Size = 1, it seems that if new connections are required we sometimes get a connection timeout. So we decided to set Min Pool Size = 30, and on the testserver this works fine. In the odp tracefile (tracelevel=2) you see the 30 connections building up immediately. But on the production server we see no difference, it looks like the (new installed, application pool reset) application still uses the Min Pool Size = 1 setting.
The connection string is build up in application code. On the testserver it was sufficient to stop and start the website and its application pool, on the production server this has no effect.
Does anyone have an idea what the problem is??? We also tried restarting the IIS server, that did not help either. In production there are more applications using ODP.
Regards, Paul.

What problem are you trying to solve at this point? Simply "why is odp not tracing?" The only suggestions I really have there are
1) make sure you restart the app after enabling tracing parameters
2) make sure the directory you've set tracing to is open as far as permissions
3) make sure you've set tracing in the right registry setting if you have multiple versions of ODP installed
4) if you're trying to write to c:\ root, try creating and pointing to a different (c:\odptrace for example) directory instead.
Hope it helps,
Greg

Font weight has no effect in legend in flex 4

Font weight,Font size has no effect in legend in line chart. Also i have trouble with date time axis.What should i do about it

Good question. That is the funny thing! With echo %classpath% everything seems to be o.k. But not one of my java editors will recognize this package. When I use this package on my other computer (XP Home) everything will be recognize correctly.
The only way for me was to kill alle entries in all classes which are defining the package name. But this solves my main problem only temoprarry.
P.S. Sorry , English is not my native language ;-).

How Do I Change the Mailbox Font Size in the Sidebar?

In an earlier preview build of Lion, I was able to change the size of the Mailbox font used in the left sidebar to view more content in the column, but I don't remember what I did to change it. The Mail/Preferences/Fonts & Colors pane no longer has a Mailbox font option.
Does anyone know how to change the Mail sidebar font size in Lion?

I'm not sure what you're responding to. Bob H. above pointed out a clear bug in changing the Mail list font when he went to Mail/Preferences/Fonts & Colors and changed the font setting for the Mail list (second column), and it didn't work.
My issue was the font size in the first column (sidebar), which is not controlled in the Mail app, but by going to System Preferences/General and checking the box for changing the sidebar font size. This checkbox also controls the font size for Finder (Desktop) windows sidebars (left column), where hard drives, other volumes, user Documents folders, and the like are listed. This does work perfectly for me.
I have no other suggestions for you, except for perhaps trying removing the com.apple.finder.plist file located in the ~/Library/Preferences folder, which you can access by holding down the option key while selecting the Go menu at the top of the screen. This controls the Finder window settings you have previously selected, and may be corrupted. Simply move it to the Desktop for temporary safekeeping, then if it simply copied it, vice moving it out of the folder, right click on the file in the folder to move it to the Trash (you may have to authenticate). This will force the Finder to recreate a default version of the file, which you can then remodify to your liking. If that works, Trash the copy you moved to the Desktop. If not, put it back in the folder to restore your prior settings.
Good luck.

Changing Default Annotations Font in Preview

Is there a way to change the default annotations font in the preview app for Mountain Lion? I'm using the annotations feature to take notes on class assignments, however, I don't like the default "noteworthy" font. I've tried to change it by selecting Tools > Show fonts. However, when I highlight the annotations I've taken, then try to select a different font, it only closes my annotations note without changing the font.
Along the same lines, is it possible to have rich text formatting while using preview's annotations feature?
Thanks in advance,
AH

Hello Experts,
Pleasure to meet you all through this forum. This is my first reply to a question.
Mr. Chuan Lee, try the following and let me know if it works to your issue.
1. Choose the document that you would print and choose the PLD icon.
2.Click the field on the Print Layout Design on the left and then check the Font and Size in the Format Tab of the Properties window on to your right below field Index window.
3. If it is differing from what you are expecting, change and font and size and save the changes.
4. Check the box " Block Overall Font Change" below the Font&Size property fields.
5. Save your preferences.
I think it should work.
Experts correct me if i am wrong. Appreciate me if I am right.
All the best Chuan lee.

Changing the UI font size in InDesign CS6?

How can I change the UI font size in InDesign CS6 (as with Photoshop CS6)?

It's not possible, sorry.

Changing bounds origin of UIView has no effect

I try to pan/scroll a big image(500x500) in a small frame (200,200) like in Google Maps. Changing bounds origin of UIImageView has no effect. The same part of image is displayed by the view.
IBOutlet UIImageView *image;
-(void)touchesEnded:(NSSet*)touches withEvent:(UIEvent*)event
CGRect bounds=[image bounds];
bounds.origin.x=bounds.origin.x+10;
bounds.origin.y=bounds.origin.y+10;
[image setBounds:bounds];
Does anyone have any idea what is wrong?

Ok, I found out what's wrong.
To "pan" an image you have to change bounds origin of PARENT view.
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {
CGRect viewRect = CGRectMake(50, 50, 100, 100);
UIView* myView = [self createView:viewRect withColor:[UIColor redColor]];
UIView* childView = [self createView:CGRectMake(0, 0, 50, 50) withColor:[UIColor blueColor]];
[myView addSubview:childView];
[window addSubview:myView];
myView.clipsToBounds=TRUE;
myView.bounds=CGRectMake(45, 45, 100, 100);
[myView release];
[childView release];
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
-(UIView*) createView:(CGRect)viewRect withColor:(UIColor*)color
UIView* myView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:viewRect];
myView.backgroundColor=color;
return myView;

Only my email font size has changed....it's gone smaller while everything else including ads is normal size. How do I change it back to 12 pt type?

twice in the past few weeks the font size on my email has changed smaller. The first time it went from 12 pt type to maybe 10 pt type. Last night while I was chatting on Yahoo with our daughter, it went down to maybe 2 pt type. I couldn't find a way to change it back. This morning I opened up the computer to try to work on it again and the font size was maybe 1/2 pt type. The words look like little squiggles on the page. Both my email addresses on Yahoo have reacted the same but the ads to the right of the email on the mail page remain the same size. If I open up another window, and say go to foodtv.com, everything is normal size. I have opened up Safari and gone to my email and everything is normal szie so the problem is the Mozilla. I have also called ATT and gotten help and they couldn't help as it's definitely a Mozilla problem.

Premiere Pro CS5.5 User Interface Font Size

After years of using happily using an early version of Premiere to edit DV I have finally upgraded my video hardware & software to handle HD.
I am using Adobe Premier Pro CS5.5.1.
I have a 24" WS full hd monitor as my primary monitor.
Can it really be true that there is no way to increase the font size in the user interface aside from changing my screen resolution?
The default font is too small for my old eyes to view comfortably. I'm fairly certain that the old version of Premiere I had allowed
the font & other parts of the use interface (like the frames in the timeline) to be scaled.
Have I somehow missed something in the settings, or did adobe really leave something this basic out of the user interface of an $800
software package? Do I really have to change screen resolution or buy a bigger monitor to increase the GUI font size?
AdvTHANKSance.
Grizz

I am so, so, sad at how America and the world has got so lost, it harasses the disabled (I am vision impaired) and the TBI (I am recovered some 30 year later) by keeping the interface letters so small I have no hope of figuring what does what, even though I have repeatedly spend (about) 800 dollars for Adobe (latest) CS5 Adobe Premiere.
Just as Microsoft, abusing the user is casual, needs no explanation, only aversion, and the disabled and the ones actually buying the product can just take a leap- no right click, no text size changes (to the interface) in MS outlook, the directory tree inaccessible.
I am trying to warn the USA citizen of problems I fight since 1981, and the very ignorance and letting things break down....keeps me from learning how to currently get my voice, video, camera (XF305) uploaded. I have been told to throw away my 800 dollar (or so) Adobe Premiere, get a webcam, forget the 8000 dollar camera, and use You Tube to get a message uploaded direct, fast, without harassment. Please tell me I do not have to start paying 50 BUCKS A MONTH to STILL not get to creating a video clip merged with another using Adobe Premiere, this breaks my heart to see the decay in the V.A. now widespread into everything, remember this was "not suitable for any purpose" warning Adobe carries from decades ago? It is evidently more unsuitable then ever, UNLESS STOLEN then I hear it works perfectly and is a work of art.
Rome fell NOT because the veterans were ignored, WHILE things broke down, a SIGN was the vets getting ignored, they being in the bigger government. Here, modern vets ignored for decades, until too old to fight, and the entire USA seems to teeter, even blocking voices to mention this very same catastrophic issue- levels and more levels of obfuscation and solicitation to spend more money for ever less certain ownership. Every cubic foot of a city lot taxed, legislated, as things break down

Restoring default console font size

I recently performed a long overdue series of updates, and now I'm facing the same font size issue that was discussed in this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=96768
Now I've seen this page, which talks about changing the font and the size: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … fault_font
But the thing is I actually like the font, it's just the size that I'm trying to change. When the system starts to boot, the size is great. It's only after "waiting for udev uevents to be processed" has finished that the font gets tiny. So I know the right settings are somewhere in there, I just don't know where to keep them the way they are without getting changed.
I have a sneaking suspicion the fix is easy, I'm just missing it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

As far as I can tell, the default font is called, oddly enough, default - and if you look in /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts you will see only two options: 8x16 and 8x9 - use setfont to confirm.
If neither of those is large enough after KMS kicks in, you might try one of the other older school fonts in that directory.
Oddly enough, it is called default, haha. Played around with a couple of the font settings, but what wound up happening was that it would load the font, and then after ""waiting for udev uevents to be processed" finished, the font got tiny again.
So it might be a resolution thing. Will look into that.

Changing menu, sidebar font size

can anyone tell me how to change the font size of the menu bars and sidebars? i just can't find it anywhere?

Your answer is an honest one.
People have been submitting suggestions to Apple over this issue for several years now and Apple has done nothing about them. Changing screen resolution size is not a workable option for most people as anything other than the native resolution renders fonts blurry. Tinker Tool can help with some font issues but not with the system fonts that give so many people problems.
I have read posts in other forums on this issue and the thing that was pointed out is the reason Apple refuses to allow system font control is they think such control will damage the integrity of the Aqua interface. While I disagree, it is, after all, their company and their product. While I am happy overall with the Mac platform, there are some things that Windows and Linux do much better than Apple and fonts are one of those items.

Is it yet possible to change all global font sizes in thunderbird?

I see there are several posts about the base font sizes in thunderbird but have you actually solved this yet please?

These are the Options available to you which can increase the font size of '''everything''' in Thunderbird - Folder pane - email list etc. It is up to you which you choose to use.
'''1. Increase screen resolution'''
You have not told us what screen resolution you are using. This will effect everything you see on your desktop and all windows including Thunderbird. So if you are having an issue with the idea of using addon or creating a userChrome.css file then try this first.
Control Panel > Personalization > Display Settings A high Resolution will decrease the overall size of everything. If you are finding everything on your computer including everything in Thunderbird is too small, then lower the Resolution setting to increase the over all appearance of size. It is operated using a slide bar. then click on Apply and then OK when happy with result.
'''2. Use an Addon: '''
addon will only effect Thunderbird and not other programs nor desktop.
* https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/theme-font-size-changer/
download the addon to your computer. then install the addon following this information:
* https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/add-ons-and-extensions-faq#w_how-do-i-install-an-add-on
'''3. create css file This only effects Thunderbird.'''
This may seem a little daunting, but it is simple. It requires you to be able to follow instructions, create folders, copy paste and save files. You do not need to actually write code.
Make Hidden files and folder visible:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
In Thunderbird:
* Help > Troubleshooting Information
* click on 'show folder' button
* a new window opens showing your Profile folder.
* '''Close Thunderbird now - this is important.'''
Create new folder and call it '''chrome''' note the spelling - use a lower case 'c' It should be in the same place as the 'Mail' folder.
open Notepad:
usually located under All Programs > accessories > Notepad
Copy all the text between lines below and paste it into the Notepad document.
<pre>
* Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
*Make all the default font sizes eg:14 px:
* { font-size: '''14px''' !important; }
</pre>
If this proves to be too small you can edit the 14px to say 16px etc
Save the document as filename '''userChrome.css''' in the '''chrome''' folder. Note the spelling all lower case except for the 'C'.
Restart Thunderbird.

Mail font size has become too small

Hi,
The font size in my mail is too small and changing preference size numbers has no effect.
Umm. Ever heard of that?
What should I do?
Garrett

Are you talking about the font size for received messages?
If so, this is caused by the sender using HTML for message composition.
Copied from Why HTML in E-Mail is a Bad Idea.
Because it introduces accessibility problems. When you write in plain text, the receiving mail client renders the text in whatever font the reader chooses. When you format email with HTML, the sender controls the formatting. But this is a trap: You only think your message will render the same way to the viewer as it appears to the sender. In reality, the receiver can end up squinting because the font looks so tiny, or vice versa. HTML is not rendered the same way from one viewing client to the next - all guarantee of accessiblity goes out the window. This is especially problematic for visually impaired persons.
With such a message open, at the menu bar go to View > Message and select Plain Text Alternative and all text will be converted to your chosen Message Font and size selected at Mail > Preferences > Fonts & Colors.
There is also a Terminal command available that automatically converts message text composed in HTML to Plain Text for all received messages.
Sorry if you are referring to something else.

How to increase UI font size in After Effects?

Hi there.
I have a lil problem. I have high rez monitor and using AE CS6 but I couldn't find about change UI font size menu.
Is that possible? My OS windows 7.
Best,
Kuma

Hi everyone,
This feature has been added to the new 13.1 release, as I can read on this page, correct?
I am working on a 21'' 1920x1080 monitor on windows 7, and the text has become much, much too big to my liking - it is taking so much space it is detrimental to my working environment.
I've looked for options to change that but cannot find any in the preferences. Can I do something to solve this?
At the moment the text is so big I cannot even see the timeline, as per my usual layout settings - see attached screenshot.
Many thanks
