Fonts
Greetings Batties, Once again I have changed something (in this case a font) and don't remember how/where I did it. I've spent the last hour looking for where this change was made in the hopes I wouldn't have to bother the list again but... alas, I can't find it. Just for clarification, the Window Split mode I'm using is Full-Width Preview pane which looks like this: - | | | | | | | | | | A | B | | | | | | | - | | | | | | | C | | | | | - Where A is the account tree, B is the list of emails contained in whichever account folder is selected in the account tree and C is the contents of whichever email is selected. The font in C is the one in question and as I compose this email I see that it's also the font being used in this New Message. I have been through Account Properties, Folder Properties and OptionsPreferences without success. Even though Account Properties and Folder properties both have an option to change the font on New Message, making a change from the apparent default Courier New, has no effect and when you look at it again, it's back to Courier New as though you never changed it. I'm not even sure that this font being used now is actually Courier New. Any help will of course be greatly appreciated. -- TIA, Jack LaRosa Using The Bat! ver: 4.2.44.2.

They are off the bottom of the box and I cannot seem to figure out how to get to them. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thom.

My error lay in the fact that apparently *some* font changes DO NOT require a TB! shutdown restart where this particular one does. I had actually changed this font and expected it to appear changed as soon as I closed the font-change window. When it did not, I assumed I was changing the wrong font. I'm thinking a SAVE/RESTORE PARAMETERS function might come in handy sometimes for people like me who don't pay attention to what they're doing.

While this may not help you, I've found myself in similar situations and subsequently learned my problems lay in the desktop screen properties. Close all windows (Windows key+D) and right-click anywhere on the desktop. Select PROPERTIES and either or both of the tabs APPEARANCE or SETTINGS can have the effect you describe. Hopefully someone with considerably more knowledge that I will also respond to your query. -- Jack LaRosa Using The Bat! ver: 4.2.44.2.

I'm sure you've found out by now that (Windows key)+D actually minimizes, not closes all open windows. Sorry about that. -- Jack LaRosa Using The Bat! ver: 4.2.44.2.

I have a dual monitor system with the monitor in question running at 1680x1050, it's native mode. I tried changing the resolution to 1440x900, but there was no change: the dialog box seems truncated and I cannot figure out how to enlarge it. There's a screen shot of this problem here: http://people.stu.ca/~parkhill/thebattprofilelayout.jpg . I can just reach the font box and raise a list of possible fonts, but no changes stick. I would appreciate any other suggestions. Thanks, Thom. Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
