By default, you can not change the size of the icons. You need to use another Launcher, if you want to customize the size of them.

How to change the size of taskbar buttons? I did everything that I've seen proposed in these pages, and nothing works.
The buttons of programs open in the taskbar are tiny and square. I want them to be of normal size (by default). I have locked and unlocked the task bar. I moved the "three vertical lines composed small points." Nothing works.
If you want to enlarge all the icons in the taskbar, and then increase the point size of buttons of legend to a larger number of advanced appearance settings.
Follow these steps:1. click on start, Control Panel, personalization, window color and appearance.
2. on the window color and appearance, click "Classic appearance open for more color options" (link below).
3. in the box "Appearance settings", click on the button "Advanced".
4. in the box "Advanced appearance" under "Item:" dropdown, choose "buttons".
5 set your size
6. click on the OK button.
7 on the "Appearance settings" box, click on the button 'Aplly', wait.
8. click the OK button if you are uncomfortable with the size to change, or just click on the "Advanced" button to set the size.I hope I could help

I don't know how to change the size and quality of the text on the screen on Windows 7
I just installed a new Windows 7 but I don't know how to change the size and quality of the text on the screen. I tried all the things normal, resolution, size of icons, dpi etc but nothing gives me what I want. The text in clear 'wonderful' thing is just terrible. When I go through the 4 steps I see no text boxes which make the text nothing better. All options are terrible, so the result on screen is too terrible. When I do any huge I do not get a full screen of things - view the Start button disappears or I did not closing small cross at the top - of the suggestions to inprove the situation? I must mention that my screen/monitor is 2006 - I need to buy a new one? How much is this Windows 7 is going to cost me, or maybe I should go back to XP!
I sincerely thank all you smart "technicians" for all the answers you always gave myself and all others who ask questions. I'm not too smart with all this new technology as I fell into it very late. I am now in my 60s and only started using a pc when I was over 50 years so... In any case, I asked a question about the size of screen resolution and text and received much good advice from all that you guys. I had recently changed in XP to Windows 7. However, the bit of advice that I was given in 'Cyberking' here at the Portugal had set the resolution of the screen, the advanced settings, 75 to 60 Hertz Monitor tab. Very basic, and the first question asked the technician (Lady) was "what size is your screen? Naturally as a smaller screen that any 'techno' would be considered dead aid, solving the problem was simple and straightforward without me having to stretch my knowledge and my skills by downloading all programes weird (to me) or do the funny stuff in the bios or something else. I send this comment to you for you to realize that the simple solution is not always bad and maybe we should go for the easiest first and then work up to the more difficult ones.
Just for you all to see - now my screen resolution is perfect, the text on the screen is clear and legible without difficulty, even though the size of text and icon is small. Clarity is all!
Thank you all once again! Best regards, Blondie blue.

How can I change the size of text and background color?
How can I change the size of text and background color? When I select the text box and change the height, nothing happens. If I drag the box is smaller, it just jumps back to where she was. If I try to change the color, (which is set to 'default' gray), no color, it still shows as white on preview. Because I can not change the size of text box, I need to at least make the clear background because it's something that overlap.Answered my own question kind of... I had to go into the 'code' and change the settings manually. Why even have the options in 'view designer' to change the size of text box or color if it doesn't?
