    I can't seem to set my text right
    « on: October 28, 2018, 03:33:59 PM »
    I either get to big or to small. It's to big and then I use the magnifier
    to go smaller but won't go smaller. In my email to it is the same way.
    I want to set it so it's just right to view.

      When I go to settings and ease of access and display where you change text size is
      grayed out.

      What operating system are you using?

      You can find this out by pressing the Windows key and the letter R at the same time (WIN+R) and typing (don't include the quotes) "winver".

        Click on Start
        Click On Settings (Gear Icon)
        Click on System
        Click on Display

        Your text and scaling settings should be right there.

          Mine says 175 but it is grayed out and when I click on
          the arrow to change it won't work.

          Try doing the same steps as before, but clicking on advanced scaling settings, and typing in a custom scaling size.

            Thanks I have set it there before but I changed it from 169 150 and also turned the magnifier off. I think it will be OK now. I don't quit know why that one is grayed out though and why their are two places to do that. Maybe the grayed out one is for the icons or something else.
