AX Retail POS - change font type and font size of item grid and "Total" + "Tax" + "Balance" text

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello, 
I haven't been able to find anything definitive going through the POS Services projects that would allow me to change the font type and font size on the main POS screen.

Here is an illustration of what I'd like to accomplish: Change the font type and font size of the items as pointed by the red arrows.

QUESTIONS:

  • Can this only be done via DevExpress?
  • If this can be done from code behind ... which Project and class should I be going to do the modifications?

Thanks

    Hi Lionel,

    There is a time ago ... I also tried to find a way to modify these main controls.

    I have found no reference in the Retail SDK. I believe that these main controls are locked.

    I managed to find some reference the properties of these objects "decompiler" the .dll POSProcesses. (TotalAmount and Receipt class in WinControls) however, we can not change these classes.

    Alternatively, you can try to change the width / height of the columns/fields in AX Designer

    Retail\Setup\POS\Screen Layouts\Designer

    You can also check CustomField.cs , to assign values in the fields programmatically,  open the Services solution (the services.sln file should be located in the C:\Users\[user]\Documents\Retail POS Plug-ins\Services directory).  

    For more details of this procedure, check this link:

    Please, if you find otherwise, share with us.

    I Hope this Helps!
