UI font size in dreamweaver is too small - can it be changed?

Hi,
I just purchased Dreamweaver CS6 and found to my dismay that the UI font sizes are so small that I need a magnifying glass to read them. At least they give the option for larger UI font sizes in Photoshop, but not in dreamweaver - as far as I can see.
This was one of the reasons I abandoned dreamweaver after version 8 (Macromedia).
Adobe really needs to sort this problem out for different screen sizes and accessibility. Even freeware authors get it right.

I agree, but it is not only DW that is a problem, most of the applications that I use, including this forum, have the same problem.
My solution, I wear a pair of IT-glasses, sort of like reading glasses that have been further refined for the screen.
My solution prior to that is as follows
Right-click on the desktop
Select "Screen Resolution"
In the Screen Resolution dialog, there are 3 options in the lower center.
Click "Make text and other items larger or smaller"
Chose one of the 3 pre-set sizes <OR>
In the left column, click "Set Custom text size (DPI)"
Then scale the ruler until the text size suits your needs.
This had the unfortunate consequence of reducing the workspace, hence my glasses.

    't' and 's' in font GFS Didot don't correspond to selected font size.  't' is too small, and 's' is too big.  Can this be corrected?
    GFS Didot is nearest listed MUSE font in appearance to Adobe Caslon Pro, which is the font used in the book which the website is intended to promote.  I would like to use Adobe Caslon Pro (I paid for it and it's on my computer, but not in the cloud). Is there any way to install Adobe Caslon Pro as a MUSE font choice in the cloud?

  • Font Size for Favorites column too small in Leopard

    I just installed Leopard and find that the font used in the Favorites column is smaller than that used by Tiger and is too small for me to read. I see that the View Options allow font size to be changed for the file and folder names in finder windows, but I can't find anywhere to set the font of the Favorites column. Can anyone help me with a hack?

    Guess not. Thanks anyway.

  • Font Size from Desktop 4.1 to 4.1.4 is Too Small--can it be changed.

    I notice that when I upgraded from Desktop 4.1 to Desktop 4.1.4 that the font size for memos, calendar, contacts, .etc is considerably smaller than it was in DT 4.1.
    I've seen some posts here that seem to suggest that there is NO way to change the font size of Palm Desktop for the Palm III class of PDA's.
    I suppose Palm thought they were doing us a favor by decreasing the font size and allowing more viewable text on screen BUT actually it's just another source of eye strain.
    Anyone found a work around for this before I roll back to Desktop 4.1?--'cause I'm sure not about to change my system default font size or resolution to accommodate this new "feature".
    Post relates to: Palm IIIxe

      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
    Thanks a Lot... It works excellent for me!

  • Font size on AOL is too small to read my email

    Something odd has happened to the font size on certain websites - most notably on AOL.com. The font size is so small that it is hard to read. Emails are still sent in the standard default font but the screen is very small.
    On the other hand, the font on facebook.com seems to have gotten bigger.
    Other websites have not been affected as far as I can see.
    Is it a problem with an add-on?

  • Font size in Notifications way too small!!!

    Hello guys,
    I have made the font size for the whole phone LARGE... but the notification pull down text is TINY!
    It does not change with the font size of the phone.
    This is a problem because I need to have a bigger font to be able to see it properly.
    Please fix this Sony, it should also change size with the font size change made in settings.
    Is there any solution/ forthcoming fix? I may have to return this wonderful little phone if not.
    Thank you,

  • Font size Elements 12 way too small - how to enlarge the font?

    Windows 8.1 and Elements 12.  The font in Elements is so small I can hardly see it, much less use it.   I've tried everything I can think of and I cannot get the font any larger.  Any ideas???   This is crazy!

    That is the actual size of your image file. 48 x 38 is very small.
    That is not a Bridge or Photoshop problem.
    It is a very small image and you cannot enlarge it more than x 1.5.
    If you want a large photo you must ask for it from whoever gave it to you, or take a bigger photo if it is yours.

  • Preview images are too small - can't be changed.

    When I open some jpegs, I only see very tiny versions of the images in Preview. It's really disconcerting. I know that they are larger - I've downloaded them from the web, saved them on the desktop or in a folder, and then when I double click and open them, they view at far, far smaller than the pixel width and height.
    Even when I select "Actual Size" in View, they remain just as small. And then when I click the + button to enlarge the image, it simply blows it up, pixellated.
    It seems really crazy and buggy to me. I've never had this problem before, and I've been using mac for years. Any clues / fixes?

    Look in you LabVIEW.ini for any font related lines.

  • The default print size on Pages is too small - how can I program it to be larger?

    The default type size in Pages is too small - can I permanently size is larger? Thank you.

    Hi Ellis,
    When you say the default font size, is this set by the template you use for a new document? If so, create your own. Open a blank template, set the font size, and Save as Template... with a new name.
    In Pages > Preferences > General > For new Documents > Use Template.
    Choose your template. When you open Pages, it will open that template.
    File > New will also open that template.
    The font of a document from someone else has been set by the author of that document. You will have to change it.
    Also, have a look at View > Zoom. Perhaps the font is not small, but your view of the page is small.
    Regards,
    Ian

    I finally got the font size issue remedied. I somehow had an add on to make the print large in the address bar. But I have saved your tip to a folder for future reference and thank you so much.
    Now if someone could just help me with this crashing business. I can't isolate it because nothing is constant. I unselected hardware acceleration and this is the longest I've gone without a crash, but I'm not thinking I've got it solved.
    This is on an old laptop running XP. Firefox was running just fine until yesterday morning when I uninstalled RoboForm and installed LastPass. After that I started getting the crashes, yet I'm not pretty sure they have nothing to do with LastPass itself.
