Investment Screen font size

#4 08-08-2006, 03:14 PM

Thank you for the suggestions. Just for the record: I do have a 20 inch
digitial monitor. What's fustrating is that the other pages in the program
are good, but the investment screens are smaller.

I'll try changing the internet font sizes and also the screen resolution
this evening.

Again, thanks for the input.

Try also setting the Internet Explorer font size in IE View|Text Size to
something larger. I'm not sure exactly which Money page you are seeing this
on, but there are some Money pages that are influenced by the IE text size.

Has anyone else experienced this issue or is it just me? And if so, does MS
realize how annoying it is? Why would you change the font size that
drastically when the other screens in the software are legable?

The simple answer is no.

The ways that are available are

1. Buy a bigger monitor. I know you are going to find that a
stupid suggestion, but think about it. You deserve it. But do you
have the space for a 21 inch monitor, or the Money for a 20-inch
LCD? The LCD is only going to help if it has bigger pixels.
To be really sharp, the monitor should use a digital interface such
as DVI.

2. Switch to a lower resolution if using a glass monitor. i.e.,
if using 1280 by 1024, switch to 1024 by 768. This is least
satisfactory IMHO.

3. On a blank spot on the desktop, right click and choose
Properties-> Settings-> Advanced change the DPI setting to a higher
number. This will have some downside too. You will have to
experiment, and change back if you find the downside to outweigh
the upside.

Is there any way to change the font size on the investment pages? The rest
of the software screens seem okay, but when I get to the investment pages the
fonts get too small and "fuzzy".
