Font Size

Hi,

My eyes are not that good anymore, and it's really hard for me to read these small words. I just found how to change the size I type. But is there any way to change the font size of the posts I read?

 

Lots of love,

Timber Wolf?

I have to use my Browser's settings up to 125%+ to get it to where I can read it, that is my only suggestion.  Some of the edit functions on the top line, such as font size get pushed out of the picture though.

A quick way to resize is to use CTRL & + keys

 

Tried it, and it works, be go to heck.  Took my browser to 150% from 125%

 And of course, CTRL & - (minus) keys work just as well to reduce the font sizes.

Okay, this has taken quite a bit of tweaking as Invision does not offer this option as standard, and I've not actually found it in their "marketplace" where modders offer their add ons for the forums.

 

If you look at the Nav Bar at the top of ach page, just below the Trans Pulse Logo, you should see a pair of "A's", click on the left hand one fontminus.jpg to reduce the font size, and right hand one fontplus.jpgto increase the font size.

 

If is set to only go up or down two steps, any more and the layout of the forums is ruined. If you have used font sizes in your post, then this will not change. It only affects "normal" text and is restricted to the posts and the widgets on the right hand size, not your details on the left of a post. Hope you like and find it useful.

It is taking me a bit of juggling between my browser size percentage and what the buttons do, but that is just my old eyes in a way but I think it will be helpful in the long run.  Good job, I would have no idea how to pull it off this well.  I can see all the options on the composition box here, which gets goofed up if I go up another notch on my browser control.

The "A+/A-" buttons and the "Ctrl +/ Ctrl -" keyboard methods work great on my desktop, but

the only way I could do anything similar on my Android 10 smartphone is to go to Desktop Mode

when viewing the site in Chrome, for example, and use the "A+/A-" buttons, which allowed me to increase the font size from Seriously Small to Squinting Small ?.  If anyone knows of other ways to increase the font size

when viewing on their phones, that would be great!

Afraid it'll only work on a Desktop computer. The only way I've found on a mobby is to use two fingers and drag apart so as to increase the size of whatever you are viewing, can't guarantee it'll work on everything though, or every site.

Actually, I am happy to report that the text +/- works perfectly on both 2017 & 2019 iPads running iOS 14.1. The buttons only affect the text size within the post on each thread and has no effect on the text size on right side panel showing the previews of those posts. I’m not sure if it works that way on a desktop or not but that’s something I’ll likely check dow the road unless someone else uses a desktop for this forum and wants to comment. I rarely if ever use TP forums on a desktop.

 

It’s a very nice added feature, Petra Jane. I’m at that age where I use reading glasses after about an hour on my iPad. This may curtail that another half hour..lol.? 

 

Thank you!

      Well yesterday was not fun. I was getting ready to make dinner and I hear screaming and crying. I look over and my son put his foot through glass. He gashed near his Achilles tendon. Thankfully that is intact. I didn't freeze for a second. All of my military training came into play. I doctored him up and got Jett ready and myself and we headed to the ER. He is doing ok today. He says he is in pain but doesn't need Tylenol. He is a tough cookie!

      Hi,   It's seems today is my trans birthday.  I'm beyond excited. Just picked up my testogel from the pharmacy. Although I naturally have doubts as I'm sure do we all, they are rapidly disappearing. Yesterday I was so nervous I kept claiming I'm not trans, despite grinning like a fool knowing I can pick up my prescription the next day. I'm shaking and on the verge of happy tears. I will put on my first sachet this eve. Thanks so much to this forum and kind words from people. This is the first forum I found when I began seriously questioning.

      While the Soviet Union did not end up being the source of all evil, I believe that history has shown that Joe McCarthy generally was right. There ARE all kinds of Marxists slithering around. And if that had been dealt with firmly 75 years ago (or more) the nation wouldn't be in the shape that it's in now.    And while I generally oppose the idea of intervening in foreign affairs, the world probably would have been better off if we had taken care of issues in Russia and defeated the Bolshevik Menace back in 1919. God bless the memory of Admiral Kolchak.   Getting back to project 2025, my belief is that Republican efforts are inappropriately focused on trans folks. A minority of a minority does not wreck a nation. But it is easier to focus on trans folks because they can look like they're doing something. They don't have to address the real problems, and really they don't want to address them because they would have to address themselves.  They would also need to admit that the 50 State version of the USA cannot be saved.

      @Willow things went pretty well on Monday. I have been working on the project all week long. I've been hanging out with my husband a lot, since he said that nobody would mind because I'm working on company stuff. My work is going slowly, but it is going. Rather better than I had hoped.   I ended up waking up late this morning. After 18 months of only working on house chores, not really used to doing anything else. Actually a little bit tired

      Getting back to this… I've seen objections to Critical Race Theory, but simply "critical theory" is a new one on me.  I think we need to be "critical" about a lot of things, or at least examine why we believe what we do about them.  If they stand up under scrutiny, great.  If not perhaps we need to look at something else.   Not all socialists are Soviet Russian Communists. I have read very little Marx myself.  That kind of writing bores me quickly.  But I think there are legitimate concerns about unfettered capitalism.  There are countries that seem to do well on a mixture of capitalism and socialism.  But I am no Tankie.   The Red Scare kinda morphed into the Lavender Scare, and now we have this Transgender Scare.   The thing is, most people are scared to get to know any of the people they are scared of. I'm not scared of evangelical christians.  But I am a little scared of what they seem ready to do to me, because they are scared of me. I am not a scary person - don't want to be.  I'm just an old trans woman trying to mind my own business, and get with what's left of my life. And the 2025 project seems to be designed to make that difficult.

      My mom has been more accepting of me being trans lately and even promised i could get a binder if i pay with my own money. The preferred name is still an issue. So far my mom, close friends and brother know i identify as trans but no one else does. I recently told mr grandparents about my partner and explaines the perferred name as a nickname they prefer to have. Luckily everyone who knows is accepting but i feel like i still have so much progress to make. Started getting more uncomfortbale being reffered to as my deadname and she/her in public. My therapist is getting me a trans pin for my birthday next time I see her. I have hop but sometimes I feel like the goal is so far. HRT and top surgery are things i know i want but there has been warnings given to me about the problems that come with it from the ones that have accepted me and I trust most. Mainly from the adults in my life that know, also been getting nervous many people dont see me as a man but i also go to an all girl school. being consistenly reffered to as women has started to get to me and have had urge on several occasions to write perferred name on paper. i dont think pereffered name can go into school system due to being catholic school and for graduation diploma we have to contact the person in charge and ask. I just need some advice on what to do, I am thank ful for the advice everyone had given me, made me feel better about future and hope that I can transition but also worry about familial ties and affect. due to most f them being born in the 80's and 90's and not taking it well originally mostly based on my moms reaction. I love my family alot but how they might react is scaring me. my mom still donesnt want them to know. I know they love me but when I eventually come out and medically trasition in several years hopefully, what will happen? there are little kids in the family and I already dont see them a lot, how would their parents react? what would they say to the kids? I know my aunt would not take it well due to political belief and warnings from cousins.
