Re: Default Font size PLEASE?

I believe when you sign in you can go to Settings (listed on the lower left hand side of the page), then choose preferences, and then choose text size.  That might help?

Re: Default Font size PLEASE?

I've noticed that the default font size on a desktop Windows computer using Internet Explorer has changed so that the font is quite small. I also have been going back and editing my post to enlarge the font. This has only been a recent occurance.

 

The IT folks need to get involved to fix this issue of the default font size. I notice that when the IT people are young or do not wear reading glasses, they do not realize that the readability of a website means that the font size should be user friendly by default.

Something so simple as changing your settings....thanks!

 

 

I was struggling with changing font size too and with the suggestion that you go into your settings, I changed the "default" to Large and

this is what you get.

That setting is for the size you see text in when you're on the forums. It isn't enlarging message font size per se, but it does have the effect that what you see all over the forums is larger. However - when someone posts in size 1 font it still appears eensy-weensy.

Re: Default Font size PLEASE?

The programmers could set a default font.

 

Have you ever noticed that all the titles have one????

 

For some reason, they think we all want to be word processing experts......WRONG!  Did that enough years at work.

 

They added a lot of features that show their expertise, but it makes it more difficult for the users!

Re: Default Font size PLEASE?

Never considered a large screen PC, apologize for that and I'm sure you can see everything quite good...makes sense.

 

I use my IPad, smaller screen . But it would be good if IT could just set the default to a good size for all.

 

Thank you 👍

Re: Default Font size PLEASE?

Im posting this in the mobile setting on a smartphone. In mobile, im not offered font, size, color, spellcheck, quote, etc.
So whatever this looks like, its the look of posting in mobile setting.
