Why icons and text on photoshop are very small, (i checked edit preferences interface)

why icons and text on photoshop are very small, (i checked edit>preferences>interface)

In summary:
1. You have a "high dpi" screen. The advantages to this are that things that are painted on the screen in a reasonable size will be made up of a lot of pixels, and will be very crisp and clean looking.
2. Photoshop has not yet embraced "high dpi" operation. It's complex to do so, in that Adobe has to rewrite the software for all the controls on the screen to be able to use more pixels. That's not to say it's impossible, it's actually fairly straightforward for a given control - but there are a HUGE number of controls in many, many different places in the application.
Adobe has said they're working on it, and have made some noise about Microsoft not having supplied everything they need to succeed at the full reimplementation. But the current version does not have the ability to size itself up to be a reasonable size on your "high dpi" display.
That said, if you really, really want Photoshop to be "magnified up" to where all the controls (AND the pixels in the image you're editing) are much larger on your display, there is a workaround/hack... It's a bit geeky and requires registry editing, and one day when Photoshop really does gain "high dpi" support you'll need to remove the hack, but here it is:

I can't vouch for its performance, but it might make it usable for you in the interim.

I'm a chinese, i downloaded english version of firefox. Everytime I get into facebk, the text in chinese are very small, even thou i've set the font size, it cant help! but only happened on facebk, why? can anyone fix it? i've been trying many times.

firefox > Preferences Content : Fonts & Colors: Advanced Minimum Font Size/ Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above" '''i tryed but helpless'''

If you need to adjust the font size on websites then look at:
* Default FullZoom Level - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/6965
* NoSquint - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2592

I installed a recent update to my iMac and all my screens are very small now. How do I change so that I can read my screens.

How do I increase the size of the fonts any everything else on the screen?
Thank you, Bob Plunkett

Gentlemen:
This was not a well thought out question; poorly written and I apologize. I should have known that the answer was right there in the system preferences under "displays". Sorry. Thank you for your Patience.
Sincerely,

Photoshop CC icons and text are too small: how to adjust so they're readable? [was: Joanne]

I have just downloaded Creative Cloud on a new computer. The new photoshop icons and text are too small for me to see or work with. I cannot seem to adjust this so its "useable"

Hey Bob,
Ive put feature requests for this in before and I know many others have as well. Is there any way to see if Adobe is actually working on this? I dont really consider this a feature request, it should be standard with the software. A feature request would be something like creative cloud libraries, not the ability to make font sizes and icons bigger.

How can I separate the "Icons and Text" of the browser control buttons (Back, Forward, etc.) from the Icons on the Add-on toolbar?

At home, this is not an issue. I don't know why it's different here at work--same installation, same settings (as far as I can tell).
Windows Vista
Firefox 7.0.1
Status-4-Evar installed to turn add-on bar into a status bar
I have a NoScript add-on icon in the corner, which works fine. If I add a GreaseMonkey icon from the Customize menu, the "Icon and Text" appears for that icon, like the Icon and Text from the browser controls (Home, stop, etc). Other add-on icons also show Icon and Text (S4E, for instance). NoScript is the only one I've found so far which collapses down to just an Icon.
This leads to the status (add-on) bar having a much larger height than I like. Essentially what I want is for only the Icon to appear in the Status bar (Add-on toolbar), while keeping Icons and Text in the Browser controls. My current workaround is simply removing the other add-on icons from the status (add-on) toolbar, but that takes away the ease of toggling and setting options.
Please tell me if I can provide you with anything else, and thanks for your help.
Edit: I've got some screenshots to show what I mean.
[http://i41.tinypic.com/ftek9s.jpg desired behavior]
[http://i43.tinypic.com/1z6a4h3.jpg problem when icon is added]

Surely there must be some UserChrome.css that will solve this problem. Something like this:
/* Remove text titles for icons in add-on bar */
addonbar .button-text {
visibility: collapse !important;
Unfortunately that does not work. I probably have the button text item name wrong (there is a pound sign before addonbar but it doesn't show in this posting).

How do I change the size of my icons and text

I just purchased a new iMac 21.5 The display font and text are too small to read comfortably. How do I adjust the display, icons and text?

Hi there.
Just do a 'Right Click' on the desktop and a menu will appear.
Choose 'Show View Options' at the bottom of the list and all the options are there for you to alter as you wish.
Cheers

How to increase toolbar icon and text size on new pc

I just purchased a new laptop and with the new screen resolution, the icons and text on the toolbars, menu and address bar are small.
I was wondering it there was a way to increase the size of all these things?
I tried changing the screen resolution on the laptop but any setting other than the native display setting causes everything to be fuzzy
Any help is greatly appreciated
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I installed firefox on new laptop

Hello Tony.
I see that you are using Windows 7. Windows 7 (and other versions of Windows) have accessibility tools that will let you change the scale of the image. This will have an effect on all applications, not just Firefox. Contact Microsoft for help on that.
In any case, you may have luck if you search for a specially made theme: [http://addons.mozilla.org/ addons.mozilla.org]. I doubt it will look pretty though.

Icon and Text on a JButton

I want a button which has an icon AND text on. (The text above the icon) is this possible? and if, how?

Yes it is possible. Look in the api - you'll see there is a constructor:
JButton(String text, Icon icon)You can also create a button and call setIcon later.
There are other icons you can set as well depending on the state. See the API for AbstractButton for more detail on:
setDisabledIcon
setDisabledSelectedIcon
setPressedIcon
setRolloverIcon
setRolloverSelectedIcon
setSelectedIcon

Bookmarks toolbar shows icons AND text and won't change to icons only, like in vers 4

Running Firefox 4.0.1 over Windows XP. In previous version, Bookmarks Toolbar showed only Icons, which expanded to Icons plus Text when cursor hovered over the Icon. Now the brute shows Icons AND Text, and refuses to customise to Icons only, even though that's how it is set. Strangely, it will customise to Text only. If I set it to show Icons and Text, I can't see any change at all, it's like the relevant lines of code are identical, or the drop down choices concerned both point to the same line of code (if you follow what I'm getting at). Sorry it's a bit verbose!

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

There is no application called "Adobe" - you are either working with Adobe Acrobat or the free Adobe Reader. Open up the preferences for the application (Edit>Preferences), then go to the "General" category and modify the settings for "Scale for screen resolution". You will have to restart the application after you do that. Does that fix your problems?
