How to increase the display font?

Fri Feb 12, 2016 6:04 am

An using MW Pro 6.5.4. Can't figure out how to increase the font size of the message list. Got a new high res monitor and the text is very small for old eyes. {sigh}

Can someone point me to the file I need to edit?

Thanks in Advance.

Hi Swede

There's no way to do that natively in MailWasher 6. You'd need to increase the font size for all of Windows, that though might be a good thing for other programs too, I run my laptop at 150% for example.

Try this link for details on how to do that http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/wind ... maller?v=t or http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/wind ... aller/?v=t

Thanks

Thanks for the tip, RusticDog. But that's not suitable for me. The other progs where the font is too small, usually Ctrl + will bump it up, but not MW.

If I knew where MW got its settings from (like an ini file or dll or such), I could maybe adjust it there (have programming experience so am not afraid to play around). I looked at some files but nothing hit me as appropriate {sigh}.

Thanks your reply.
