the fonts in firefox browser and terminal emulator xterm are too small. I can enlarge characters in firefox browser by "ctrl +", but small fonts in xterm can not be modified by me at the beginning, but now I create and configure ~/.Xdefaults, and this problem has been solved. the fonts in panel of Awesome WM was also very small at the first, after configuring Awesome's theme.lua file, everything is fine now.:D

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. Nothing there about sizing.

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.

HI,
In order to change the size of a radio button... one way you may consider is to Customise the Radio Button.
Place a Radio Button (RB) on the FP of a VI, Right-Click the RB > Advanced > Customise...
Click the Mode Button (most Left button) for Edit Mode
Right-click the radio button (the round image) now, you will see a list of actions i.e. Copy to clipboard, import picture ...You will see Four images under the 'Picture Item', those are the images that you will need to replace.
Prepare Four Images of the similar but larger expected size
*** Copy the 1st new image to clipboard. Back to the Picture Item and select 1st image. Then, select Import Picture (to replace the existing image)
Repeat *** for all four images.
Once done, change the mode back to original. Save the *.ctl
You are now ready to use the customised radio button!
Quick sample attached (sorry for the poor images created )

Is it possible to change the system's default font?

It is difficult to explain my question, but is it possible to change the system's default font of the script at the top of all windows, and desktop icons? I really think that would add personality to my powerbook. Thanks for any input.

It is possible, and may be changed using the Terminal if you know the commands. However, the easier way is to use TinkerTool <http://www.bresink.com/osx/TinkerTool.html>.

How to change the size of redo file

Deal all,
I finish installed the db,and the size of redo file is 50m by default. I found many "checkpoint not complete" events in alert.log file.
Now i want to change it to 100M and try to avoid the event appear again ,how can i do?

As Sb has already correct reply that size of redo logs can not be changed. We have to create new bigger/smaller size of redo logs and then 'alter system switch logfile' to inactivate older logs. Now you can drop older logs. Redo logs are something a glass of water. We can not change the size of glass, if we wish to dring more/less water, we will take that sized glass and we will get that sized water.
Remember to consider the multiplexing/grouping when doing any maintenance like this. And there may be archive log & backup space considerations.

How to change the size of New Page create pop up window ?

In Site Actions on clicking of New Page the pop up page is opened it is stretched mode.
I want to change the width of that pop up windows only.
After pressing F12 key i find that it is happening because of the java script function on calling of which that page is opened.
But i am unable to find that javascript function from where it is calling or where it is written or how i can modify that function.
So please help me out in solving that issue.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to change the size of the new page pop up dialog.
We can create a new dialog with proper size to achieve it.
I have made a simple code demo to create a new dialog with proper size, you can have a look at it.
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
ready();
function ready(){
$("span[title='Open Menu']").click(function(){
//alert(2);
setTimeout(openNewPageClick,500);
function openNewPageClick(){
//setTimeout(openNewPage,1000);
$("#mp1_0_3").removeAttr("onMenuClick");
$("#mp1_0_3").click(function(){
url="http://sps/_layouts/createwebpage.aspx";
openDialogBox(url);
function openDialogBox(url){
var options = SP.UI.$create_DialogOptions();
options.url = url;
options.height = 900;
SP.UI.ModalDialog.showModalDialog(options);
</script>
Note: You should change the ID or class to fit your environment.

How to change the size of an individual icon?

I know that I can do "Show View Options" and drag the slider to change the size of all the icons on my desktop, but how do I change them individually? I want to make one icon larger and keep the others the same size.
Thanks!

hello danacorrick, please see [[Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages]]. the firefox zoom settings are always only applied for the current domain (for example support.mozilla.org if you scroll here) and will, per default, be remembered the next time you visit a page.

How to change the Size of the font of the JDeveloper IDE

First of all, this question does not concern the code editor.
How to change the font for the editor is clear, well documented in the documentation as well as in many of this forums threads.
My question is how the font of all the IDE components can be increased.
Is some threads I found to change the font size in the ide.properties file.
I tried that solution but it does not bring any solution.
I'm a person with low vision, using a MB Pro with OS X lion just for overall better visibility.
Talking to a lot of people, who have good vision capabilities, it seems that even a lot of people suffer from the fonts which are to small.
So ... is it possible to document clearly where to do what and in what versions of JDeveloper.
I've not yet discovered if any kind of skin settings can be applied ... but this would be great, surely if some kind of predefined bigger fonts would be available.
Currently I'm using version 11.1.2 and 11.1.1.5.
Help would be dearly appreciated.
Greetings,
Jan.

Did you close JDeveloper and re-open again after making the changes in ide.properties?
If changing the ide.properties does not work.
Try this:
Go to 'Tools' Menu and select 'Preferences' Sub menu:
Select ''Code Editor" and select "Fonts"
Set the options for font-size as in screenshot:
