Try this. In the preferences panel, there's a search box. Type "big" in there without the quotes. You should see a preference in there called something like "bigDisplay." Try checking that box and opening a new window.
Your font size will increase a good deal, as will various UI elements. This is really a great feature on modern high res displays. I use it almost all the time now, because Squeak looks tiny on all of the displays I have left.
If the large mouse pointer (this is called the "Hand" in Squeak speak) bothers you (it annoys me,) there's also a preference to return just the hand to normal dimensions, but I can't remember what it's called off the top of my head, and I don't have Squeak handy, so I will have to leave that as an exercise for the reader.
If you'd like to learn more about how preferences work in Squeak, check out the classes Preferences (a single place to interact with system preferences,) Preference (representing an individual preference,) PreferenceExample, and PragmaPreference (a new way to express preferences near the behavior they affect in the system.)
Hope this helps, and have fun with Squeak!

Hi all,
This is a simple question.
Is it possible to change the font attributes on the Class Browser? On my machine the font is small and it would be nice to play with those options.
Open the world menu (left click on the "desktop"), select 'appearance...', then in the submenu, select 'system fonts...'. Here you can set various fonts used by the system. You want to change the 'code font...' and probably list font, button font, menu font, window-title font and balloon-help font. Optionally halo label font. I guess the rest doesn't affect the appearance of the browser. Note that the full changes only take effect for newly opened browsers.
Levente
Thanks, Erlis
