Title: Change font size without using volume buttons
Post by: staceyuk on February 21, 2017, 06:49:55 pm

Hello,

Since the 1.8.1 update I have found the font too small. How can I change the font size without the volume buttons please? I find using the volume buttons too fiddly. Could be due to my disability.

Also, from a usability perspective I fold the old colour of green for selected emails better than the new grey. How do I change it back to green please?

RE: How can I change the font size without the volume buttons please?

1. Disable the option in -> Settings -> Look and feel -> "Volume keys: font size"

2. Afterwards you can adjust the font size in:

• Account list
• Message list
• Message view

-> Menu button (3-dots icon) -> View -> Larger font / Smaller font

Thank you. That's very helpful.

Okay, thanks to @Paris Geek for clarification.

Assuming you mean the green color of the tick mark, I would like to know too.

I think he meant the *background* color of selected messages.

The default is now gray, but it can be changed - app settings -> message list -> color: selected messages (almost at the end). This is a relatively new capability.

Yes I did. Thank you for answering my question. Colour has now changed. FYI I am a *she*.

Sorry about that. OK: "I think *she* meant the background color of selected messages".

 ( BTW, there was no setting to change this color while it was green, and there were users who didn't like that color choice too... )
