    Default change fonts on forum

    Does anyone know how to change the viewing font when I'm composing/editing a message. The viewing font to read the forums is fine, a typical 10 or 12 point, but for some reason, my composing font is about 5 point...too small for my struggling eyes...and hell for anyone trying to read with the typos I'm making too.
    Thanks

    I will mention this to the webmasters. I agree. the editing font is quite small.

    First I've heard of it. I use Firefox and the editing font size is the same as the viewing font size.

    dcbour and kpit, what browser are you using? Also can you take a quick screenshot and I'll run it by the experts.

    Thanks.

    Here is the fix to the font size problem... go into the User CP (Control Pannel for fourms). Then "Edit Options" then look for "Miscellaneous Options". Select the Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing. Save the changes. and you should be set.

    Hello Markku,

    It appears you have the standard version in the picture. Try setting the option again for your other browsers. I think the option is stored in a cookie.

    Hi Max, and thanks for the hint, I just checked and the cookie has the value vbcodemode = 1 (enhanced) , but I guess I better delete it and then try again.
