Increase Font Size

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by meofcourse 60

Hi, our users are coming directly from ACCPAC for Dos, and are finding that the font size in GP Dynamics 10 is quite small.  Is there a way to increase the font size? Note: Increasing the font size for Windows makes no difference.

 Thanks.

     so no-body knows how to increase the font size?  Can someone at least tell me its not possible if they know its not possible, or show me how to do it if it is possible?

    I too had the same challenge from my users.

    A work-around to changing the font size is to:

    1. Open IE
    2. Select Tools > Internet Options
    3. Select Accessibility
    4. Check the 'Ignore Font Sizes specified on Pages' box

    Hope this helps.

     Hi brikeler,

     

    Just noticed a month later that you responded.  Thanks for the response.

    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 (althought 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.

    Were you able to find anyway to change the font size in the data entry boxes?
