Font size in data entry boxes

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 1,445

I found this solution ( inserted below) on this forum for changing the font size on the home page. This was a great solution but I am still looking for a solution to make the font size bigger in the data entry windows.  Has anyone found a way to increase it?

Thanks,

Michelle

 

This work around works for all the pages except the ones that my users have been complaining about.  They would like the data entry forms to have a larger font. For example when entering a batch.  The main control panel's font is large enough (although)  I did find another work around for that as well).  In the data entry forms it seems to be only about font 8.

 The work around I found for the home page is as follows:

 1) Backup the file C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics\GP\Background\homepage.css

 2) Open the file C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics\GP\Background\homepage.css

 3) Change all the font-size: 9pt; sections of the file to font-size: #;  where # is the desired font-size.

The changes are effective for any user who reopens Dynamics.  Note: this is for Dynamics GP 10.

 

Even with this work around, the data entry boxes still have the small font sizes.

    We have tried every which way to change fonts. resolutions, increasing default font sizes via control panel, using dex.ini switches,etc.. Doesn't work for windows within GP ( e.g. sales trx entry window.... menu items will increase in font size, but data entry fields  &  labels will not.

    Are you using a relatively high screen resolution?

    If so, you can change your screen resolution or system font size. Here is a link to a similar issue and resolution:

    Michelle,

    Were you ever able to find a resolution for this?  We just upgraded from GP 10.0 to GP 2013 and my users are all complaining about the same issue.  Unfortunately I haven't been able to locate a fix for this as of yet.

    Thanks,

    Joshua
