Helpful hint about resizing text

Post by kingalls »

Does it bother you when you have to scroll from one side to the other to read a post because one of the posts has a large picture or signature?
Well, here's a tip for managing that if you have a mouse that has the middle scroll "button"....
hold the "ctrl" key down and scroll the middle mouse button up/down to decrease the font so that it fits within the screen....

This function works on most applications, emails, etc.

:roll: I usually use it because I need to make the text larger (one of those over 40 eyesight issues)...

Scroll and the + sign works too----for those who may still have the old style mouse,
