Title: Resizing main Nightmist window
Post by Bernard on 06/18/03 at 00:59:07

Would it be possible to allow the main Nightmist window to be resized? Those of us who have poor eyesight (or very high resolution monitors) often use larger fonts than the system default, which seems to result in a window that has a great deal of unused space.

While I realize there is a thread suggesting resizing the account manager, I thought that this was a usability issue rather than an issue of convenience.

it can be maximised to use the full size of your screen, it can't go bigger than your screen to allow you to zoom in on areas of it.

if you have a mouse with a wheel make shure the cursor the little | thing is on the the text window hold ctrl and scroll up this will bring ur text size up bigger then what JLH has set up via game optioins text size,

I remember before I knew that I accidentally did it and I thought I fooled around with some IE settings.

He's talking about the game window. Put your cursor in the text box (not the one you type in, but the one the text shows up in) and use the rollbutton on your mouse to change text size.

I know what Dutch pancakes are like, remember that I'm from Germany, where the pancakes are like yours. But living with a family of "I want fluffy pancakes" americans, I had to adapt and make fluffy pancakes. ;D
