How do I change the size of the cursor, I-bar pointer?
I am running Windows 8.1 on a PC. I have updated to the latest InDesign through the creative cloud center. Everything runs perfectly except for the fact that my I-bar cursor/pointer is huge. At least three or four times larger than normal. I have looked under the preferences section>interface and then all the sections under preferences but cannot seem to find this issue addressed anywhere. No other program I use has changed the cursor size or I-bar size. It is only happening in the InDesign program. I also use Photoshop Elements, but the cursor size is unchanged there. InDesign is the only culprit. The I-bar size is stressing me out, especially when typing or editing text. Help!
This did not help. All my panels and workspace are the correct size, just the cursor is wrong. In Windows 8.1 I have the following choice in font settings: 1. I can change to smaller, medium or larger. There are no percentages. 2. Change just the text size; again there are no percentages, only point sizes here, my choices are Title bars, Menus, Messages boxes, Palette titles, Icons and Tool tips.
If you are going to direct me to "Set your fonts size to 124% in Windows" PLEASE tell me where that is in the Windows Control Panel>Appearance and Personalization>?? Or somewhere else?

How do you change image size in the title window?
I just changed operating systems to Windows 7, which meant that I had to re install Premiere Pro CS4. I am now working on a 64 bit system. Might not make any difference, but thought I would give you the specifics just in case. When I pull up the title window to add a title to my clip, the image is about the size of a postage stamp. How do I increase the size of the image in that window?
Thank you again for responding Hunt. I did find out what what was happening.
I had to reinstall the program on my computer. I just upgraded to Windows 7, and I now have a 64 bit system. When I booted up PPCS4, I assumed that my settings would be the same as they were before when I had Vista installed and didn't bother to check them when I started a new project. Well, they were not. I also added a TV tuner card to my computer. I now can watch HD TV on my computer. I suppose that it is possible that somehow PPCS4 noticed that, and set my default settings to HD, rather than NTSC DV. I just merrily went along clicking the OK button and started editing. When I start a new project now, I select NTSC DV and the Title window works just fine, and exactly the way I expect it to.
I just received Jeff Bellune's book Adobe Encore DVD 2.0 in the mail and will be totally immersed in Encore studies today. With all of his children, I don't see how he had time to write it, but I'm glad that he did. I also ordered a book entitled Designing Menus with Encore DVD. I know that it was written for an earlier version than CS4, but I will trust what you said about that. Many things are the same with some minor variations due to upgrades in the program. The basic ideas don't change, but how you accomplish them can, and usually do over time.

Subject: how do you change image size in the title window?
Welcome to the forum.
That is an odd one. The Title should be the same Frame Size as your Project/Sequence. What is it's Frame Size? Also, are you perhaps doing a Title based on an older Template, that was done for a different Frame Size?
What happens if you choose Title>New Title>Default Still?
Good luck,

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. -
For the life of me, I can't find out what size a photo is in terms of inches or how to change the size of the photo[s] so I can print them. I think I read somewhere to click edit, then click adjust. I don't see anything about re-sizing when I click the adjust tab: only saturation and tint levels. Thank you.
With respect to digital images, there really is no size in inches. The size is given as number of pixels horizontally and vertically. In iPhoto '09 you click the little "i" inthe lower right side of the window and it will display information related to the selected photo, including the pixel dimensions. I do not have iPhoto '11 installed so I don't know if it is the same there.
In some applications, such as preview, it has something additional called Dots per Inch (DPI) which you would think would allow you to convert the pixel dimensions to inches. It is not a real thing, though. The DPI is determined by how large or small you have chosen to print your photo and the capabilities of your printer.
There is also something called Aspect Ratio, which is usually expressed in inches x inches such as 6x9 but that doesn't mean the size on the screen or when printed is 6x9. It is the ratio of the pixel dimensions. When cropping your photos, you will have several standard aspect ratios to choose from plus any custom ones you create.
In iPhoto '09, after you choose Print, in the Print Setting window are the settings for the size you want the photo printed. You want to shoose a setting with the same aspect ratio of your photo. Otherwise, iPhoto will resize and/or crop your photo to fit the size you have chosen. -
How to change the size of the force quit window?
When I open the force quit window, it fills my entire screen, and it is larger than the screen of the TFT monitor that I am using from time to time. How can I change its size back to original? The window is not resizable by dragging its border or clicking the green plus button in the title bar.
I don't know how the window got this size in the first place. All I know is that it happened during a crash where I closed a lot of other windows and where I accidentially clicked the green plus button of the force quit window instead of the red x.Try rebuilding your Finder prefs...
Go to Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences and trash these files:
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
Then, restart, or log out and in again.
(You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.) -

How to Change the Size of the Parameter Form in Report6i
hi
Does any one know how to change the size of the "PARAMETER FORM" in Report6i.Hi,
You can change it in the "Parameter Form Window" property of the Report Object.
In the object navigator, select the Report object and open its property palette. Under "Parameter Form Window" you can change the "width" and "height" properties.

How to change the size of the caret in a JTextPane
I have text of different font sizes and the default caret height is the height of the text with the maximum font size. How do I change the caret height so that it matches the height of the text with the specified font size ?
This has been a real pain in the butt to figure out, but I think I finally got it. If you create your own caret (subclass of DefaultCaret) then you override its paint() and damage() methods. I was having all kinds of problems with this though. I was getting pieces of carets left behind when I moved with the arrow keys, etc... from the helps I found. The arrow keys were my big problem.
I think I finally figured out that the damage() simply does need to specify an area a little bigger than the old caret so it can blank it out. Then I think others had a logic problem, and Sun does not make this problem clear. What happens it that I think repaint() calls paint() who then uses the bigger x, y, height and width parameters that got set in damage(), which was causing my problems because the damage size was bigger than the size I wanted to create my caret with. What I do is figure out my area from the font I am using (another trick) and make them (the charWd and charHt) variables class variables. I calculate them in damage, use a bigger area to blank out my old caret in damage, and then used the correct caret size I calculated in damage() in paint(), instead of the rectangle values that seem to get passed from damage() to paint(). That was the problem in other examples.
Here is my code:

How to change the size of the scrollbar in JScrollPane?
I set a jtable in the jscrollpane,but the table is very small,so I want to change the size of the scrollbar in the jscrollpane.How can i do?Please help me,Thanks.
Dropping and re-creating the table is by far the best way (of course you need to unload the table's data to a flat file with ttBulkCp first and then reload it again afterwards).
a second option is to drop the column and re-add it with the new size but you still need to preserve the data first and put it back afterwards and this is harder for a single column than for a whole table. Also, if you are using replication you should exercise care when using ALTER TABLE to ensure iall replicated copies of the table maintain the same physical structure.

HT2523 how can i change the size of the picture i have copied and paste
how can i change the size of the picture i have copied and paste
If this question is about TextEdit, I don't think you can do it in TextEdit, after pasting the image. TextEdit is meant to be a basic text editing program.
You will have to open the image file in an image editing application. You can use Preview for doing this, or something more fancy. If it's Preview, just open the image file. From the menu bar, under Tools, select Adjust Size. Make the image the desired size. Then, select (outline) the portion of the image you want in the Preview document window. Copy it, and paste it into the TextEdit document window.
