Strange that you cannot change the font on the top line (along with inserting pictures), etc.  I'm trying a larger font size now.  I'll see if it continues after I post this response.

Hi @shoekitty,

 

Before you start writing your message, use the menu at the top of the post, click on the dropdown arrow to the right of Font Size and select a number. I chose the number 3 to write this message to make the font larger:

If you've already written your message, you can change the font size by editing your post, highlighting the text, and then change the font size same as I described above.

 

I hope this is what you were asking for help with!

@karabeth  EXACTLY! And there's no way to permanently save a font. It needs to be selected for every post.

I am trying the font now!!!  I also changed the font style.  I can read easier!!  Thank you!  But, you mean I have to change size each time. BEFORE I compose post?now perhaps my spelling won't be as bad, lol!  I had been writing blindly.  Couldn't  see we'll, even with glasses!  I am using the #4 size.  I don't know why we can't just select, and that's it. Now I have to remember as well?  lol

thanks again.

Hi @shoekitty,

 

Yes, you have to change the font size each time. Your post written in the #4 size looks good!

 

Maybe you already know this but you can also increase the font size on the entire web page you are viewing on a Windows PC by pressing and holding the CTRL key and then press the + (plus) key until you have enlarged the font to the size you want.

@karabeth what is weird now is if change font to 4, then put @karabeth  (as I have just done) notice how it your name is not highlighted in blue. Geesh. So I figured, I have to put the name first, then set font at #4.  Guess it will keep my brain sharper, lol!  They don't make it simple for sure!

@shoekitty 

 

Unfortunately, it's a two-step process.

 

1.  Type your message.

 

2.  Highlight message and enlarge font.
