Did you see my post about changing the screen resolution
to be smaller? This will make the application easier
for the students to read, even through a projector.
To do this on windows, right-click on the desktop,
go into Properties -> Settings -> Screen Resolution,
and lower the slider to something smaller like 800x600,
or 640x480 or whatever.
Otherwise, if you want to change the fonts of the fluid
'properties' panel, you can load the widget_panel.fl
into fluid and tweak it.
It's easy to select all the widgets in the panel (^A),
open the properties panel (F1), go into the Style tab,
and change the "Label Font:" prompt value from e.g. 14 -> 16.
To change the font size of the input field text, you'd
probably have to select them all separately (Shift-Click)
and then tweak the "Text Font:" value.
The hard part is then jostling around all the widgets to make
them fit with the larger font. That would take a bit of time.
(I know, I just tried)
Then hit File->Save, and File -> Write Code, and rebuild fluid.
Still, I'll bet you can either zoom your screen or change
the display's resolution to make the application larger.
A Mac is best at this, since you can zoom in and out easily
with keyboard shortcuts.
