Text too small

Text way too small on my 1600*1200 desktop. I had the old software setup nicely.

Where do I adjust the text size?
 
Does the CTRL key and the up arrow help Wag?

Also, what browser and version are you using?
 
text is way too small for my bloodshot eyes....we used to be able to change text size in profiles but now we cant. and increasing the zoom via ctrl key doesnt do anything

edit: on 1027 x 768 using (unfortunately for now while my 9500 is shot) a geforce 2mx
 
it's too small for me too (at.. 11something x 8something).. I haven't found any way to bigger it yet, but.. I sure would like to..
 
I'm using IE6 and no, nothing seems to help. IE6's text setting doesn't work on the text format this software uses.

I checked the Profile Settings and there's no text adjustment anymore.

Tools -> Options -> Accessibility -> Ignore font size specified on webpage

this could be a temp fix for you guys

Try Mozilla. 😉

It seems pretty good at ignoring the pixel-sized CSS properties of accessibility-ignorant web designers.

BTW, if you told IE to ignore the font sizes, and had previously set your Text Size to large (with seemingly no effect), then the new settings will be using your Large Text Size. Perhaps setting it back to Medium would make a reasonable compromise?
 
I like IE.. there never was a problem, til yesterday.. and even now it's only here! changing browsers seems like a kind of extreme step. smallering my type size before ignoring it (I should have quoted.. you get what I mean?) did help, the rest of the world isn't quite so ugly as it was the first time..

maybe I can get used to this. or.. maybe they'll put a bigger the type option in 😀. or maybe I'll spend less time here and more time places that don't make me squint. 😛

thanks for the help, though.. it's not difficult to change, so.. I might can live with it now, just switching it back and forth..
