Conversation window font size by daved2424 on 11-05-2005 at 01:44 PM

I sometimes use messenger at quite a distance and font size 16 isn't quite big enough. Is there anyway I can bypass the messenger font limit and make it bigger? Many thanks.

When you're in an IM do you change it in the font settings... or Tools --> Font Size --> Largest

Font settings

Okay.... well.... I just tested it out and I guess they move together depending on what size font you choose... I didn't think it did. There could be a way somebody could make a plug-in to let you have bigger fonts. You'd have to be patient, and I'm not sure if anybody would even do it.

click anywhere in the main conversation part of a chat window (where messages appear), hold down Ctrl and scroll up and down to change font size

only problem is this doesnt save when you close it

Oh thank you very much! The saving it isn't a problem as I don't want it to. Thanks again!
