How to adjust scale of status bar

#1

Post by john_robertson1953 »

Hi Robin,

I just purchased a new cooled camera and it added the cooling information to the status bar below.

By adding this info, it truncated part of the right side my frame progress.

How do I adjust the scale/ font size so all info is displayed?

Thanks much,

John

Hi John,

you can't adjust the font size, sorry.

I do try to keep things so that everything will show correctly with following screen settings :

1280 width, 100% windows font sizing

I think that is probably a realistic minimum for modern systems. It could be that I have been tweaking things and not spotted that this is no longer correct, so I will chect. It would be interesting to know your screen resolution and windows font size settings so I can test your particular configuration.

cheers,

Robin

Hi Robin,

My scale was set for 150%.

Reduced it to 125% and everything is A ok.

Thanks very much,

John

Hi John,

good to hear that the font size helped. I have also tweaked things a bit for today's release to try to pretty much get everything in view on a 1280 wide screen. It looks like I made things too wide when I added disk space to the info being shown a month or two back :(

You might be able to go back to 150% fonts with the new update...

cheers,

Robin
