Question

Old Crusty Brain Syndrome...need help with a Config option

I cannot remember/find the option that allows the dimension height/font to be increased on the screen in part and assembly mode. I did this in 3, 4 and 5 during the period my eyesight decided to head south.


Can you guys remember what that oneis?

    Try TEXT_HEIGHT_FACTOR


    Bigger numbers = smaller text

      Also, Pro/E may need a reboot to take effect.

      Correction.....I am wrong....David Schenken is correct. TEXT_HEIGHT_FACTOR is the correct config option.


      It is a hidden config option which is why I could not simply click "find" and well, find it. Thanks to David for saving an old(er) man's eye for a little while longer.
