Author Sizing text and toolbars PS 6?
Dan

2006-07-10, 6:18 pm

I'm using PS 6 and recently moved to a larger 17" screen, LCD. When using PS
6 at 1024x 768 I find the text on the toolbars fine but moving up to
1280x1024 there uncomfortably small.
I've already changed my appearance setting to extra large in windows XP.
Is there anything else I could do to enlarge the size?

Thanks
Dan

If you click the advanced button on the Appearance tab - there are further
settings for which you can specify a font size!

I didn't know about that setting. Thanks.
I was wondering if there was a setting where when you have the windows/show
character dialogue open you could increase the size of the characters being
displayed?
and would also increase the size of the toolbar palette etc..

Actually that setting though good doesn't seem to change the size of the
tool palettes and menus associated with them in Photoshop 6.
On my 17" at 1280x1024 screen res. I find them all still too small.
