How to enlarge overall mail window

Post by whgiii »

Since moving Seamonkey over to a new computer, the overall appearance of the mail window has been scaled down, mostly due to reduced font size. How can I "enlarge" the screen appearance to its original scale?

"whgiii", based on the limited information given above, how would you answer this?

I suggest you do some screenshots to show the problem and then work your way through this list - http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic ... &t=3062904

Did you moved entire profile or just parts of it? If second then it can be the cause of this problem. If you still have backup then remove "new profile" (make sure there there are no old/other files) and try to copy/move entire profile.

I found a solution by tweaking a couple of settings in about:config

You can play with values for either or both of these to get preferred look:

layout.css.devPixelsPerPx

font.size.systemFontScale
