Feature request: Font setting.

Post by 3DModelerMan »

I think it would be nice if you could set the font to have a top color, and a bottom color that would be blended together like you can on the buttons.
That would be illogical captain...

No problem... just be careful with those OS settings for increasing font size. I've found that they may cause various issues and have some bad side-effects since many applications may not display as intended with larger fonts.

If you are running higher resolution and it is hard to read, then you may want to also consider running at a lower resolutions (though things will not be as sharp if using an LCD monitor since it will be stretched) or upgrading the display size (like from 20 inches to 22 inches but keeping the same resolution). Fortunately my eyes are good enough that this hasn't become an issue yet for me.

I think I have removed some spam send from that account this week. So could be that the account that was taken over by a spambot. I tell him to change his pw.
