Override Ease Of Access to keep text size within APP as is

Hi Friends,
It's always something that turns up in the middle "of the road", without notice - and this one has just "passed me" since the start. I did not know or think about it at all;
It's in releation to Ease of Access - where the End User on a Windows Phone sets a larger overall TEXT SIZE.
And yes - on the app I am working on - this feature makes the TEXT SIZE in my app to explode over its GRID borders.
And as a fix to this - I am thinking to about Control.IsTextScaleFactorEnabled or to Override something in that regard.
Any suggestions on how to handle my isssue?
Thanks for anyones time on this!
Regards, Kato.

Again, please read
Meeting requirements for accessible text .
Please don't disable automatic enlargement routinely, though, because scaling UI text universally across all apps is an important accessibility experience for users and they will expect it to work in your app too.
From your usage description you are breaking your app, not fixing it.

Converting from 16:9 to 4:3 format, keeping font size

Hi,
I've got a presentation in Keynote 6.5 which I'd like to convert from 16:9 widescreen to 4:3 normal format.
When I change the document size accordingly, a lot of my text boxes and formatting 'jumps' all over the place... a 28pt font becomes 16pt, text boxes become smaller, etc. Bacially, the entire layout gets messed up.
I tried entering a manual 4:3 ratio, going from 1920x1080 to 1920x1440. Same thing. 28pt font now becomes larger. Layout again gets messed up.
All I'd like to to is keep the width, but add some pixels to the top and bottom. And keep text sizes the same. Is there a trick of how I could do that?
Thanks very much for your help!

Yes trick
This works perfectly:
1) Write down font sizes
2) Go from 1920x1080 to 1920x1440 (via "Custom Slide Size" instead of "Standard 4:3")
3) This will increase font size.
4) Redefine font sizes to what they were before resizing
Perfect fit.

[Solved] Resolution/Text size changed after installing Catalyst

I just installed the proprietary catalyst driver from the unofficial repositories and followed the wiki to successfully install the driver, however upon reboot, the text size(within all the terminals) appears to be twice the size of the regular size.
Here is my xorg.conf file that was generated by doing 'aticonfig --initial'
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "aticonfig Layout"
Screen 0 "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0" 0 0
EndSection
Section "Module"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0"
Option "VendorName" "ATI Proprietary Driver"
Option "ModelName" "Generic Autodetecting Monitor"
Option "DPMS" "true"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "aticonfig-Device[0]-0"
Driver "fglrx"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0"
Device "aticonfig-Device[0]-0"
Monitor "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection
I tried setting my default resolution by adding the line
Modes "1920x1080"
so the xorg.conf file looked like this
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "aticonfig Layout"
Screen 0 "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0" 0 0
EndSection
Section "Module"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0"
Option "VendorName" "ATI Proprietary Driver"
Option "ModelName" "Generic Autodetecting Monitor"
Option "DPMS" "true"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "aticonfig-Device[0]-0"
Driver "fglrx"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0"
Device "aticonfig-Device[0]-0"
Monitor "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1920x1080"
EndSubSection
EndSection
After a reboot, the size was still the same.
I am not sure what else could have changed the resolution/text size of the terminals.

I read the xorg wiki and I set the display size and rebooted but its the same still.

What is the native resolution of your display? What bootloader are you using?
I tried setting the kernel params of video to my native resolution. My native resolution is 1920x1080@144 and I'm using GNU Grub as a boot loader.

Sorry about that, I'm not sure what to refer to it as. Its the default terminal that shows up when you log on without using any graphics or any of that.
cedeel wrote:If you're going to be using the proprietary driver, you won't be able to use KMS as others have said.
That means that your TTY will be a lower resolutioon. So if you need your TTYs at native resolution, the best thing to do would probably be to use the open drivers.
I don't think think the open drivers support for 3d acceleration on the newer graphics card are as good as the proprietary drivers. Also, I do not need to have native resolution on my TTY's but it would be a major convenience to have it display at native resolution.

IPhone 5s Default Text Size

I have an iPhone 5s and am wondering if there is any way to increase the default text size. By this, I mean everything from the font size of the text underneath apps, but especially for things like in the App Store. The extremely small text size within the App Store, iTunes, etc. is very frustrating to me. Thanks in advance for your help.

For the specific items you list, no. You can make some adjustments that might help, however: http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph73b89c6
The reference for larger text will only impact content within apps that support dynamic text (messages or email, for example).

Dynamic Type Support (or in app text size)

Hey Claudius! After perusing the reviews for you, a main request is gaining support for dynamic type. Or having the option to change text size in app. Some consumers are straining their eyes to see small text. After Changing my app to support Dynamic Type, consumers with eye issues greatly appreiciated the changes. It didnt take very long, should be easy (hopefully) to accomplish.Thanks(hopefully this helps) Redwave Studios

In iOS there a global setting called dynamic type; There are API's from apple to help you if you are confused. Dynamic Type is an accessbility feature for visually challenged.

Text size is huge

I am currently using Illustrator in a virtual environment for school. The text size is huge, even though my settings are normal.
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!!

Hi Jacob,
I am referring to text size within artwork. I have a blank 10x10 compostition, and when I click on the text tool, then click within the comp to start typing, the type is huge. All of my text settings are normal, and the font is selected as 12pt.
I tried attaching a screen shot of the issue, but it will not let me.

Hey staceypryz,
Thanks for the question. I understand that your iPhone is unexpectedly restarting and displaying only the Apple logo. For this issue, it may be best if you contact Apple Support, as recommended in this resource:

Make sure your iOS device is up to date. If you still see this issue after updating, contact Apple Support.

HOW TO KEEP TEXT AT BOTTOM OF PAGE USING JAVASCRIPT-ANSWERED

UPDATE 5/12/2006: MORE COMPATIBLE CODE:
Was using OnRequestEnd.cfm to load copyright info at bottom
of each page but page size varied and copyright info would appear
at different points on different pages. Didn't look good. Could not
use tables to align the text for output reasons. Coded a way using
CSS and JavaScript to keep text at bottom of each page. Be careful
with CFFORM, us have to set the attribute 'wMode=transparent' in
CFFORM so text is above form. Tested in IE and Netscape. Put at end
of individual templates or inside OnRequestEnd.cfm - Enjoy!
(css goes in your external css file or between local style
tags)
.copyright{background-color:#d8d8d8;color:Black;font-size:10px;font-family:Arial;width:10 0%;text-align:center;}
body {border-bottom-width:0px;}
(following goes at end of page or in OnRequestEnd.cfm)
<span id="x" class="copyright">
my copyright
</span>

<script>
if(document.body.scrollHeight <
document.body.clientHeight){
var s = 0;
document.getElementById('x').style.cssText='position:absolute;bottom:'+s+';';
else {
var s = document.body.scrollHeight;
document.getElementById('x').style.cssText='position:absolute;top:'+s+';';
</script>

To change it for a given text frame, the frame must be selected when you execute the menu command.

…how can I apply this to the majority (400+) of my text frames at once?
To change the setting of existing frames throughout your document, use Edit > Find/Change.
Choose the Object tab.
Set the Search: field to Document.
Set the Type: field to Text Frames.
If there is a formatting attribute common to all the text frames you want to target and change, click the glass/frame icon next to the Find Object Format field to access the Find Object Format Options dialog and set that common attribute.
Click the glass/frame icon next to the Change Object Format field to access the Change Object Format Options dialog and set the Align: field to Justify under Basic Attributes > Text Frame General Options > Vertical Justification.
Step through the Find Next/Change sequence to selectively apply the change, or click the Change All button if you're certain you want all the found frames changed.

How do I increase the text size in photoshop 10

I can't read the program text it is so small and I can't find how to increase it. Thanks for your help.

Unfortunately, there's no way to increase the size of the text on the App Store itself but enabling the zoom feature in System Preferences > Universal Access - Seeing might be a workaround for you.

Change text size in iphone - phone favorites

Is there any way to increase the text size in phone favorites? I know how to use the Accessabitity setting to increase the text size in Contacts, Mail, Messages, etc...
It's just that I keep hitting a favorite adjacent to the one I am intending to choose.
Or, is there a way to add a blank in between each favorite so that a false selection is not made?
Thanks for any advice.

Dixie,
I did use Large Text to improve the contacts readability, but it has no effect in Phone-Favorites. And this is strange, as the Favorites list is propigated from the Contacts data.

Default text size in Compressor is too small for normal human eye

Is there any way to change the text size in Compressor 4 in the windows? I can't find any.
The normal default text size is way too small for any normal human being eye to read clearly.
Please, have mercy on us, whoever designed the tiny fonts! Not fair to the rest of us . . .

Well, guess we folk with not-too-good vision will simply have to keep on trucking the best we can, eh? We can't enlarge text, so as a result we can't use software like Compressor like the rest of the population. Sad to say, especially with a company like Apple . . .
Yeah, well I gave the Apple Compressor Team my feedback, just like I've done the last 3 months with other things, then of course the feedback from us all melts into the either, and we never really know if anyone reads it, like they say. Me thinks not. This is the only feedback I'll ever get, I'm afraid:

Fixing text size so it doesn't mess with layout?

In IE7, if the text size is set on anything but "smallest",
some things go to two lines. For example, if you go to
www.earthenexposure.com , I'd like to keep everything from
"sculptures" to "about" on one line.
The same can be said with the navigation throughout the rest
of the site. (here for example:
http://www.earthenexposure.com/sculptures/home.htm)
In this case, if the text size is on anything but "smallest" in
IE7, "weaponry" gets seperated from "primitive" and is put on the
second line and "links", "index" and "about" get pushed to a third
line. I'd like "sculptures" to "primitive weaponry" to remain on
the upper line and "links", "index" and "about" to remain on the
second line.
Could that text be set to a fixed size...or is there another
and relatively easy fix to this issue? (I'm new to this
stuff)

your style sheet is:
Templates/LINKS.css
open it in Dreamweaver.
go to the bottom of the page.
copy and paste
.hn {
white-space: nowrap;
save.
That's it. What this style does, is it will affect the cell
(<td>) that holds your list of
link-titles, because you have given this td the class "hn".
If you look at your code, you'll see that each one of your
links on the left is inside this:
<td class="hn">your link</td>
Looking at your code is always a good idea, when you have
questions.
"white-space: nowrap"
tells the browser NOT to break the text into several lines.
The expected result is that the width of
the td will therefore stretch to fit the text on one single
line, whatever the text size.
This seems like a good solution since your td width is not
fixed and you can't fix the text size either.

<rant>
Just about every single time I drop by this forum and/or the Photoshop Macintosh forum, I read something that reassures me as to my decision to stop buying Adobe products.
Of course, I'll keep on using the ones for which I already own a license. But Adobe is far, far from being the corporation it was when I became a customer, right when Adobe started, over a quarter of a century ago.
As I typed many, many moons ago (August, 2009):
Adobe is now a decaying, elephantine, unresponsive, gargantuan and disorganized bureaucracy that is slowly but inexorably crumbling. That decay affects software development as well, not just customer service.
It's not just the forums going to pot, it's the entire gamut of customer service, tech support and it's reflecting in the applications too.
That decay began becoming painfully obvious during the Bruce Chizen era shortly after the Macromedia merger… …which probably coincided with the idiotic concept of the "Creative Suites" that forces the premature release of applications.
