Dimension Property Manager

Dimension Property Manager

(OP)
Suspect I "no" the answer, but...

When calling up the Dimension Property Manager to add text such as spacing and so forth to a dimension is there any way to increase the font size in the Dimension Text box? I find it very difficult to read, about as difficult as the text entry box for this website, difference being there is no Preview in Sworks.

Thanks in advance,

Mike

RE: Dimension Property Manager

The only way I know is to decrease the resolution of the monitor.

RE: Dimension Property Manager

bigger monitor?

What is it with programmers anyway? I look forward to the day when their eyes are old enough that they can't read their own work anymore:)

Change the screen res? Not sufficient privileges. Get a bigger monitor? Definitely not sufficient priviledges. Besides, where would I put it?

Seriously, I have discovered the pop-up dimension data entry box thing (I don't know the formal name, as with so many things in SW). It seems it will most likely have to serve, and should, once I get used to calling it up.

Thanks to all

Mike

Mike - I have also found this to be a problem. If you are referring to the Dimension Text Box in the Feature Manager, you can enlarge the text by clicking in the box, holding down Ctrl and scrolling. Sylvia

felix7502, how interesting, thanks for the tip. However did you discover this?

RE: Dimension Property Manager

I accidently blew my Browser up and found this suggestion on-line. I figured that if it worked for web pages, I'd try it other places. Glad it helped you.
