Hi. Is there any chance I can increase the size of my fonts for the applications opened with wine? My resolution is 1600 x 1050 and the size seems to be from 5 to 6 pixels (or dpi) and it really hurts my eyes. All my linux apps are just ok at 10 pixels (or dpi) Thanks in advance Luis
I suppose you could change the fonts in the menus, tooltips and message boxes using winecfg. Go to the "Desktop Integration" tab. There you can set these fonts and font sizes. I do that frequently to get decent-looking apps. Other fonts of the GUI may be "hardwired" into the applications and hard to access. There is, BTW also a "Screen Resolution" slider on the "Graphics" tab. I'm not sure what it does or if it has an effect on the fonts. Just providing a lead here. Good luck. --hasi

Default is 96, which is small for your resolution. ___________________________________________________________________________ Yahoo! Mail r?invente le mail ! D?couvrez le nouveau Yahoo!

Hi. Thanks a lot to both of you guys... Increasing the DPI is kind of tricky... it does not accept my X values (115 DPI) but it accepts, 113 and 116 dpi, which is ok for me. Changing the size fonts in the Desktop Integrator gives me the followint error:> fixme:msg:pack_message msg 14 (WM_ERASEBKGND) not supported yetI think, to be able to use this feature, there is a need of a theme??... although I might be wrong.... Thanks in advance for your help
Hi. Well, I installed a theme and it worked just great... (as mentioned by hasi) Thanks a lot guys Luis

It only concerns the winecfg window, not the process of setting the value hidden behind :) ___________________________________________________________________________ Yahoo! Mail r?invente le mail !
