Sudden Change of Font Size

Hi Brian,

[quote]Strange stuff always happens when you clone a drive! I did just that the other day and the font size in Pegasus Mail shrank.[/quote]

On cloning a drive? Strange ... I assume, Windows changed its resolution!

[quote]How do I get it back to where it was? Or even better, how do I choose an optimal font size for my monitor and display? [/quote]

If Windows has changed the resolution, you have to change the size of fonts in Pegasus. You have a blue "f" in the iconlist. Click there and change the size of the fonts. To see the result correctly, close once the subwindow for "folderadministration" (sorry - directly translated from german) and reopen it.

bye   Olaf

If you changed to a hi-res monitor the fonts can get really small.  You can change the font for new messages, message reader, and folder windows but you can't changed the fixed fonts used by the Pegasus Mail system.  Options are to utilize a magnifier app or reduce the screen resolution.  I opted to reduce the screen resolution.  I occasional receive notices from the OS (perhaps from the video driver) that the resolution is not set to ideal resolution but that's a minor annoyance in the whole scope of things.  If this sounds like what you are dealing with I can provide you with the resolution I ultimately settled on on my hi-res laptop to use as a starting point in finding yours.  That will have to be in a few hours once I get home and settled.

I didn't change monitors, but the system thinks I did. Thanks for answering. I'm looking forward to hearing how you dealt with this.

My problems was with installing on a laptop with a 1920x1080 native resolution.  I had to reduce it to 1600x900 to make Pegasus Mail system fonts legible without some sort of magnifier. I wonder if the previous install was at a reduced resolution but something has happened to reset it.

The font size in folders, the message reader window, and the new message body, you can changed using the various font options within Pegasus Mail.  Pegasus Mail fixed fonts can't be changed, you're limited to reducing resolution or using a magnifier app.
