Hi All,

I think my eyes are going as the text on the forum seems tiny these days!

If you are having trouble reading posts because of the font size - let me know below, and if enough people post a comment - I'll tweak the settings and increase the size some.

Dear KGAdmin, the text size is just fine for me, but if it needs to be bigger for others, it's fine by me.

How are you keeping by the way? :)
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

Has KG Admin adjusted the Text Size on his browser or bought a mobile broadband offer with a 9" screen laptop attached?

Well to me, as one who has had difficulties with the text in the past, I find it just right.

LOL - it WAS me!

*blushes* :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:

I use Firefox, and I must have caught the zoom text size option at some point. Since so many of you said it was fine, I thought I had better check my own settings!!

I'll get my coat....

*slinks off*

Thanks for sharing your mistake with us.

I accidentally 'shrank' everything earlier when I was browsing, but then I thought of you :lol:

Thanks to your explanation of what you'd done wrong, I managed to sort it out - simples. :D

You've saved me from having to wait for son number two to get in from work to sort my computer out for me yet again.

if you hold down CTRL and use your mouse wheel scroll up or down - in Firefox this zooms in or out - fun stuff!!

Can use CTRL-O to reset the view to normal :)

I've just tried it and can confirm it works the same in Internet Explorer too.
And it's a much quicker way than going into tools, which I did earlier. :D

It also explains how I managed to shrink my text in the first place. :oops:

Thanks for that - I've just used the control/scroll and it worked - amazing what you learn on this forum.

Thanks for that, I decided to have a play - then I tried Control O in Windows 7 and it turned out to be Open File so now I have to judge normal or find the reset!

PS : Found it Control 0
