    Is there an easy way to increase display / font? My global settings thru Internet Explorer leave the screen size a little small for my comfort?

    I figured out how to increase the font size on MY posts - I'm trying to reset the screen size for everything else.

    Second Question: How can I enable TABS in my posts? Text that I have aligned using the TAB key does not display as intended. Even when I use repeated hard SPACEs, it doesn't display properly?

    Do we have a tutorial available? I really like this format; tryig to shorten the learning curve.

    Thanks. Appreciate any and all tips.

    For a quick fix, hard to read posts- press the CTRL key, then the '+' sign, close to the backspace.

    CTRL and + will increase the size of everything in your window.

    If you are in Firefox, you can change the view by clicking View on the top of the toolbar. There you can zoom in, zoom out, and modify the percentage to a fixed rate. There is an option for zooming text only there.

    I haven't found an option on the board to zoom just the text.

    A little birdie told me that there is a difference in the tab issue when in Firefox -vs- IE....

    If you&#39;ve got a scroll wheel on your mouse, holding control and scrolling up/down on it will change the font size as well.

    Yep. That&#39;s basically how I discovered it a few years back. Copying and pasting and... oh my god what did I do, everything&#39;s in miniature!
