Dimension font size in toolbars

Dimension font size in toolbars

Anonymous
No aplicable

Just installed Autocad Architecture 2017 on a new Dell laptop.

The palettes appear with huge text size as well as the command line.

I need to resize them so they are readable.

How can I do that?

Already tried to lower the resolution but didn't work.

Also tried to lower the text size in Windows to 100% since it was 250% as recommended for the recommended resolution of 3200 x 1800.

Any suggestions on how to resize the text in the palettes (Properties and Tool) and command line??

Attaching screen shot of the problem.

Have you tried this;

 

    1. Click Application button Options.
    2. In the Options dialog box, Display tab, under Window Elements, click Fonts.
    3. In the Command Line Window Font dialog box, select the a Font, Font Style, and Size.

      An example of the current choices appears under Sample Command Line Font.

    4. Click Apply & Close to save the changes.
Note: This setting does not affect the text in your drawings.

If that doesn't work, it would appear that an update needs to be installed;

Hope this helps

Thanks Carl for the info.

In fact disabling DPI scaling did the job!

That plus reducing the resolution to 2048 x 1152 and the text size in Window to 150%.

 

Still it's not scaled perfectly, but at least I can see the text in the palettes and work.

Hopefully there will be an update soon.
