Sadly as far as I'm aware theres no way to make the palette text any bigger, you can make the preview photos on the layers and channels palettes bigger (see pics) by right clicking where the curser is in the photos and picking the larger option, not much help I'm afraid. Wayne

I don't actually remember being able to enlarge the preview in PS 6? But then again...Waynes probably right on that.

Decreasing the screen size doesn't make it bigger? say 640 x 480 wouldn't that make everything rough but huge.

My thanks to Wayne and Lasa for the replies. I just
hooked up a 22-inch lcd today that does help a little. I noticed that XP (home) is not recognizing
the new monitor (resolution currently 1024x768)
so will have to contact somebody to try and fix that.

Anyways, just happy to be able to doodle again!


Take care Wave

Proper driver settings on new monitor?

right click on desktop
properties
settings


you can look from there. Maybe you already tried that maybe not. Just a help.

right click on desktop brings error message. Can only
go through Control Panel. Systray shows an icon with
CRT checked,and cannot undo that via settings. Suspect
corrupted file somewhere.

Thought much appreciated.
