Couldn't find anywhere suitable to post this so please remove after I get an answer. Why is the text on the threads so small it's very difficult to read. Doesn't seem to be all threads.

Hi
The default text size is Normal (size=12) when posting this size is large (size =18 )

Are you at 100% on you browser? ctrl0 gives you that but if you want it larger go ctrl+ as many times as suits you.

Web browsers usually allow you to zoom in and out so you can adjust the text size to whatever best suits you, that should solve it for you.

Has the text just changed size for you, or has it always been small? I've changed nothing this end.

I have the same problem, some posts have very small text it is impossible to read without enlarging, then you have to scroll back and forth across the page to read the post. Then the next post appears enormous and you have to reduce the size again, it appears to be worse when pictures are included.

Hi
Is it possible that a browser is changing the size to accomodate the pictures?
I can just imagine a software developer thinking that would be helpful.

After all they think speaking to Cortana or Alexis is a good idea.

I do not really understand it but sometimes my screen needs to be twice as wide to fit all the words in. Perhaps it is the use of long words that is the problem.

might be pictures , and maybe people using tablets .

sadly the forum template is a little old , so does not work 100% nicely with browsers on tables etc
