Choose the screen resolution, or customize the font size 125%?

About to buy 2 new larger monitors.

Currently have 2 20 "1920 x 1080 running to the font size of 125% of W7 - poor old eyes now need more large text/icons/menus etc, but still need to see the same or more things on screen - so more large monitors reqd.

In my opinion, to my laptop, which runs 125% or 150% can get down certain pages of fall off the screen, so can not scroll or reach the buttons.

2 questions:

It is best to run strictly to the font size of 100% (default)?

If so, then I need to choose the size of the screen and the resolution to give the desired size of the text/icons/menus 100% font size.

For my calc, 27 "1920x1080s clocked at 100% of W7 WD gives even font size size text/icons/menus on the screen as if this 20" went to the font size of 135% of W7. This cd (135 vs 125) be the extra size that I need.

Or shd I get 27 "2560x1440s and W7 just crank up to 125% or 150%?

Personally, I use 115 dpi and 125% zoom page

This is a sweet spot for me it down personal preference and a combination of the two,

Too much dpi dpi of 125% is a little too for other programs to follow or use, I found.

But using the default dpi 100% and 150% zoom seems to just break up of clarity of the text, unless you up to dpi as my example the custom of 115% PPP,

Increase the dpi literally means that you can use the page zoom, less

See you soon.

  • How to lock the font size on my g-4 Pavilion Notebook 1229dx? (Windows 7)

    The size of the font on my Pavilion 1229dx g - 4 changes constantly; It seems that changing the size occurs when I am sliding my finger on the touchpad. I currently use the toolbar to restore the size of the font to my favorite Setup (100%), but I do quite often. Is it possible to "lock" the font size?

    I can have solved my problem. If you hit the start icon and type "police" in the search field, it will bring up all opportunities related to the fonts in the control panel. If you choose the font size to larger or smaller (I think that's it), you can choose your size, then press APPLY. Then close! Since I don't have the font size seems to be remaining consistent.

  • Why the font size is so great when adding text to the photo in high resolution?

    Why the font size is so great when adding text to the photo in high resolution?

    Font size is usually determined by the size in points. 72 points equal to 1 inch. the size is independent of the size of your actual file. You might have a file that is located at 72 dpi, which is set to a 5 X 7 "and the police would be the size even if it is a 1200 dpi image 5 X 7.

  • How can I customize the font size for Pivot Table Section 11 g?

    Hi all

    I'm new to CSS customization, and I followed the suggestions to use tools like Firebug to look at the CSS styles applied to a particular item.

    11 g, I have a report that uses rotating sections of the table to display the numbers associated with the Department in each Department and the sections. Using Firebug, I see that the titles of the Department are on police-size: 9px; by default. The HTML is:

    < class = "PTSC OOLT" td style = "" are-size: 9px; ">"

    I would like to change the font size default to the values of the Section of the Pivot Table so that it displays 11px-size of font instead of 9px for all reports.

    Digging around, I don't see a way to do unless I have use custom styles custom.css and reference in each of my pivot views. Does anyone else have a suggestion how how I can change the default font size without having to create a custom.css entry? We have many existing reports that have been migrated over 10 g that I prefer not to go back and must add a reference to each view simple pivot.

    Thank you.

    Sign of salvation,

    Welcome to the Microsoft community forum. From the description of the problem, it seems that you want to change the font size for the user interface modern app.

    You can change the modern user interface text size by going to the charms > settings > change the settings of the PC > PC and peripherals > display

    Windows 8.1, you can now set the DPI (Dots per Inch) scale to make text and other items, such as icons, fonts and windows, to more or less important for all display or by display screens.

    Windows 8.1 DPI scale improvements are mainly focused on:

    • Optimization of ergonomics and the readability of displays high-resolution
    • Offering an experience uniform multi-screen systems
    • Give developers optimize app specific scale based on display DPI

    If you are using a resolution of 1366 x 768 display on a shelf, chances are that UI will look good 100% ppp settings. But what about when you connect the tablet to an external high resolution? In Windows 8, you can choose either 100% in order to optimize the user interface on the screen of the tablet or display up to 150% in order to optimize the user interface on the outside. You have to make compromises.

    8.1 Windows takes care of this issue pressing address scaling of IPR by display . By default, Windows 8.1 will choose the optimal DPI scaling value for each display based on the value selected for the global scaling in the control panel.

  • Adjust the font size

    You're right, the zoom works only on the message itself.

    You can adjust the other sizes using the extension of theme font & size changer. I have attached a screenshot showing how it can enlarge everything other than the screen message. Unfortunately, it doesn't give precise control over the sizes of the different areas. Maybe there is a better solution, but I hope this will you tide over for now.

    To install, use the 3-bar menu button > Add - ons, in the left column click on get add-ons, then search for the font size and install the extension.

    After Thunderbird restarts, its icon should appear in the lower right corner on the status bar. From here, you can choose a different size.

  • possible to change the font size of the bookmark toolsbar?

    upgrade to firefox v22 and notice this bookmark toolsbar got bigger, some bookmark font cannot be displayed, it is normal? possible to change?

    Hello

    Firefox on Windows is now after display, scaling options that can make the biggest text on screens at high resolution.
    You can adjust the resolution of your screen.
    To change it follow these steps:

    • Type of topic: config in the Firefox address bar and hit the Enter key.
    • If the warning that this might void your warranty , click I'll be careful, I promised.
    • Search for layout.css.devPixelsPerPx

    • Double-click layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to edit its value. The default value is - 1.0 in Firefox 22 and above. Change it to 1.0 to run as in previous versions of Firefox.

    If necessary, further adjust the value of 0.1 or 0.05. Values between 1.0 and around 0.5 to reduce the size of the elements. Use a value greater than 1.0 to increase the size. For example, a value of 1.25 will increase the font size of the 125% to account for the default DPI setting in Windows 8. Check the value that you enter. Definition of a value that is too small will take everything away and too high will explode things.

    If the web pages should always be adjusted so you can watch the extension Default FullZoom Level or NoSquint .

    To adjust the font size for the user interface, you can use the extension of theme font & size changer .
