Size of font for chat logs by eyhc on 06-23-2008 at 05:11 AM
Everything worked well til yesterday when I viewed the chat logs. The font size of my chat logs became as small as font size 2. I couldn't right click, no options to change the chat logs to the normal size again. I reinstalled messenger plus but it doesn't help. Any idea I can get it back to normal font size for my chat logs ever again?

PS: ^^^ The above will most likely work, but if not hold Control and Scroll Up with your Mouse. Should increase the font size.

I checked the font settings for IE 7, it's set default as Medium. I tried to hold control and scroll up, but it did not work.
Can you explain why it has something to do with Internet Explorer? I'm using the chat log viewer of messenger plus to view the logs, not Internet Explorer.

Alright, but the settings wasn't changed from medium to small, yet the font is so mini that I can't read it.

this happened to me to.
if you are using IE7
go to
Internet Options>Advanced>Reset.
This is the way i was able to fix it

Keep Ctrl pressed down and press + to make the font bigger and - to make it smaller.
Plus! chat viewer uses an IE component to show the chatlogs so any changes you make here will be reflected in normal IE windows (after you close and reopen IE).
So its like you make font bigger in the Plus! chat viewer and IE is closed, you open IE and the font of sites is bigger too 
Hope this is clear enough

Do not suggest to use <CTRL><+>, <CTRL><-> or <CTRL><MSCROLL> anymore. That will not work anymore from inside the Plus! Log Window.
(also suggesting to reset MSIE settings is not very good since that will also reset security settings)
Please see CookieRevised's reply to How to increase font size while viewing on the Log Viewer?
