I had to increase the settings for my displays to 120% so I could read (with my glasses) my FM12. However this increase had some other effects on FM12 which I just have to live with. Everything nowadays seems to be made for the 20 years old with 2020 eyesight! Mustn't we, the seniors, go for a protest rally in Silicon Valley and Redmond? Otherwise I like the 12 a lot. Rocksolid. All my previoust versions have crashed from time to time, but the 12 almost never.
Hope you find your solution.
