Desktop display zoom

How do I increase the font size of the desktop display? It's too small to read comfortably.
Post relates to: Palm Z22

Using "regedit" I was able to change the font size larger for use with the Palm Desktop software.
  Run "regedit" and export (save) a backup copy for safety
    File  >  Export  
  Search for "FontSmall"
    Edit  >  Find  >  Find what  >  FontSmall
  Click on FontSizeGeneral and change the "Value data" to 16
  Exit "regedit"
  Run Palm Desktop software and enjoy the new legible font size!
  Notes:
  1) The location of the Palm Desktop software on my system using "regedit" is:
        HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop\Core
        * Your location of the Palm Desktop software may differ.
  2) I tested this on monitors using resolutions of 1280 x 1024 and 1024 x 768
        The font size is noticeably readable and much, much better
  3) You may also change the font family from the default (Arial) to another, such as Verdana, etc.
        FontCard    (Changes the font family in the side panels)
        FontGeneral    (Changes the font family for most of the program fonts)
  4) Operating System: Windows XP Pro
        Palm Desktop v4.1.4

  • My desktop display has been magnified and everything I open is similarly magnified.When I try to zoom out using Ctrl - or the mouse nothing happens

    My MacBok Pro suddenly magnified the desktop display significanlty. All programmes and applications are similarly magnified when open. I tried zooming out using Ctrl - and I also tried holding down the Option key and scrolling down using the mouse. Nothing happens to zoom out of the desktop and on Facebook for example the columns get smaller but the text doesn't so lines of text end up overlayed each other. What can I do to remedy the situation?

    Found the Option key. Googled it. And yes your instructions worked a treat. Thanks

  • Desktop display pic enlarged

    Hello out there,
    I selected a pic from my iPhoto library for my desktop display but when it comes on the screen, it is very enlarged to the point that the pic is cropped so barley a quarter of the full image shows. I have gone into the sys pref and universal zoom is set to off...any other suggestions?
    Thanks

    Go to System Preferences>Desktop & Screensaver>Desktop
    And look at the first drop down list, if your picture is small, and it says "Fill Screen", maybe this is your problem. Mess around with the options in the drop-down list, and see if that helps.

  • Custom html file with pix and links as Mac desktop display?

    Hi, in Windows it is possible to select an html file to use as your desktop display...pictures, web links, and links to network and local folders, files, and applications can be written directly into the html page. It was actually really nice.
    How can this be done on a Mac?
    It would be great to have personal pictures, text (poems and to do lists) displayed as the desktop background...with links to files (inspirational .mov files, recently used files, even the html file for the desktop itself for quick changes), links to start applications, and links to favorite websites...all accessible from the desktop itself.
    Alternatively, would these links need to be placed in the dashboard or expose or ? Would the text over a background image in html need to be composited into a static image file?
    thanks

    I don't believe there is a way in the Mac world to specify anything but image files to be used as your desktop.
    I might suggest that you open the HTML fileof your choice in a browser, and take a screen shot of the output. Then you can assign that screen shot to be your desktop.
    Command-shift-4 will give you a crosshair cursor to drag around the area you wish to capture.

  • I was trying to move my photos from the iPhoto library to an external hard drive.  I now have a desktop display of thousands of cascading photos.  How do I remove them from my desktop screen?

    I was trying to move my photos from the iPhoto library to an external hard drive.  I now have a desktop display of thousands of cascading photos.  How do I remove them from my desktop screen?

    Strangely enough we can not see you so it really helps if you share with use exactly what you have, exactly what you did and details about the problem
    what version of iPhoto and of the OS? What exact steps did you do? where are you seeing these "thousands of cascading photos" now and using what software and what exactly did you want to accomplish
    The correct way to move your iphoto library to an external drive is to verify the drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journal) and then drag the iphotl library intact as a single entity to is
    The correct way to move some or all of your photos is to select them in iphoto and export 9file menu ==> export  --  https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921 ) to the external drive

  • How can I get my desktop display to go to 1440*900?thanks[solved]

    I am using KDE 4,My problem is I can't set my graphics display to 1440*900
    In my searching
    I've found this on the Ubuntu forum, which seems to be my issue. It doesn't matter what I set up in xorg.conf file, it ignores it.
    It references a file called "kcmrandrrc", which doesn't seem to exist on my system. I am not sure where KDE is getting the 320x200, 320x240, 400x300,...,640x480, 800x600 and 1024x768 graphics modes. It's not from xorg.conf.
    I found this file...
    "krandrrc"
    Which contains the following...
    [Screen_0]
    OutputsUnified=false
    UnifiedRect=0,0,0,0
    UnifiedRotation=1
    [Screen_0_Output_CRT1]
    Active=true
    Rect=0,0,1154,768
    RefreshRate=0
    Rotation=1

    What I was looking for was something along these lines:
    Section "Screen"
    Identifier "Screen0"
    Device "Card0"
    Monitor "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth 24
    Option "NvAGP" "3"
    Option "Overlay" "False"
    Option "ConnectToAcpid" "False"
    SubSection "Display"
    Depth 1
    Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
    Depth 4
    Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
    Depth 8
    Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
    Depth 15
    Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
    Depth 16
    Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
    Depth 24
    Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
    Depth 32
    Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubSection
    EndSection
    Then you put in the 1400x900 that you wanted in the Modes line.
    If you are to use Xorg -configure successfully, you will need to do it from a console screen.  If you are using like kdm or gdm,  I would suggest that you log out, then go to a console screen (<ctrl><alt><f1>) and then log in to an account.  You will need to su, and then issue the following command to shut down x: telinit 3  that command should shut down X and your login manager.
    After that you can run Xorg -configure and do whatever else you need with it.
    Then, to get back to what you had before, the command telinit 5 should restore you back to your gdm or kdm or whatever.  (Normally <Ctrl><Alt><F7> will get you back to your login manager, if it doesn't try F6 or F8 until you find it.)

  • Desktop display

    I have Macbook Pro Retina and unlike the older Macbook Pro, my desktop display is not consistent in the picture display. The picture doesn't show the picture when I start the computer. I've also tried to do slideshow and it doesn't do that when I start anew. Is it something I'm not doing correctly? What should I be doing to keep the picture and/or slideshow that I have set whenever I start the machine?

    The desktop image is set in System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver
    Note the "Change picture" checkbox.  You can set the picture for the desktop and select, using the checkbox, whether to periodically change the picture.  If the checkbox is checked then you can select the period for each picture.

  • Desktop display has a border

    I have noticed on my 21.5" Imac display that i have a 3-4mm black border along the top and left hand side of the desktop display.  It looks like the display has dropped diagonally towards the bottom right hand corner.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    I have the same model as you.
    As Rudegar says, on the 2011 iMac although the glass goes right to the edge (except along the bottom where there is an aluminium strip with the Apple logo in the centre), the actual LCD screen does not extend to the edges. There is a black border (I've just measured it and it is 2.7cm wide) all round the screen area which the image does not extend into.  If this is the width of your border and it is equal all round the screen image area, then that is normal. 
    If, on the other hand, it is markedly wider on one or two sides, then you may need to experiment with your screen resolution. If this doesn't help then you may have a screen problem for a repairer to take a look at

  • Can Apple TV be used to make the tv the desktop display?

    I would like to use apple tv to use a flatscreen TV as the desktop display while my video port is used by a projector. Is that possible with Apple TV?

    No, sorry you can't do that.
    AppleTV is in effect a stripped down Mac rather than a device that streams the video output from another device.
    The AppleTV display output is generated by the AppleTV, so the device can only handle a limited set of media types either streamed to it wirlessly or synced to it's hard drive (plus some YouTube functionality).
    AppleTV decodes and renders the media data rather than iTunes.
    If iTunes rendered the data and sent the frames to AppleTV or allowed other apps to replicate the desktop it would be great, but it doesn't.

  • Cannot move iDisk icon on desktop display.

    Help, I cannot move my iDisk icon on the desktop display. All other icons move with no problem.

    Never mind. Problem "solved". I messed around with grid spacing, made some extra room by moving other icons, and was finally able to place the icon where I wanted it.

  • IPhone 6 Plus Display Zoom needs an iPhone 5 option.

    The standard option is comical. I feel like it's for visually challenged users. I purchased the bigger phone for more real estate, not a larger UI.
    A simple third option for Display Zoom would suffice, call it small/tiny if you must (although 'original' would be a better PR move).
    Just add more width, not height to the UI. Done.

    This is a user-to-user forum. Any Apple Store employees that participate would be doing so as private user, not employees.

  • Why does my preferred desktop display immediately switch to another display when I open an icon on the current desktop?

    why does my preferred desktop display immediately switch horizontally to another display when I open an icon on the current desktop?

    That's not a shortcut you are creating with "save as", you are saving a copy of the webpage to your desktop - hence the folder with files for that webpage.
