Kirsten,

What operating system are you using? Before I had my eye-ops I too was
having problems and adjusted my PC resolution to mike the fonts bigger, or
have you done this already? I suspect that Shelley is probably the best
person to advise you about all the accessibility options which are
available.

Sad news, Ron.  Surely I can't be the only one with failing vision.

Yes, I do have the screen maximized but it doesn't help with some views.
One trick I've learned that might help others is to build elements of a new
source citation in Notepad using a large font and then copy/paste onto the
Source Clipboard.  At least then I can proofread the text comfortably and
catch typos.  Once the Clipboard is saved it shrinks down to barely legible,
but it's the best I've found so far.

I wonder if others have any work-around suggestions for those with vision
problems.

Kirsten

Kirsten,

In reverse order: Name List, no you cannot. Have you tried maximising the
size of Legacy , if the font size is too small for you?

Clipboards copy exactly what they copy so they do not, and you cannot,
change its font size. The paste font-size may be affected by that of the
font-size of the place to which it is being pasted. (I have not tested this
in Legacy)

Is there a way to globally adjust font sizes in Legacy?   I've enlarged the
font on the Family and Individual views, and that carries over to some of
the screens but I can't find a way to enlarge fonts on others, especially
the Source Clipboard and left pane of the Name List.

Using v 7.5.0.112 and Windows 7.

Kirsten
