Hello Amor,

In 1.X the font size is set at fonts size 12. In 2.0 you can change this font size by using the new ini file entry MENU FONT SIZE:. There are several other options as well in 2.0 to increase the font size in a PopupMenu.

Hello Ray-

Using the ini_file entry MENU FONT SIZE : 16 does not change the font size in the PopupMenu and PopupChoiceList !
Please what  i am doing wrong?

Thanks.

Try copying the code below, and pasting it into your INI file. Your example had a space before the colon (":"). That alone can cause Sesame to ignore the whole line.
Code
Select All
MENU FONT SIZE: 16

Hello Carl!

I have your suggestion tried out however without success:
For parameters within the list remained invariably small!

Thanks.

Can you post your ini file contents here?

Also, experiment with smaller numbers than 16. I noticed that numbers larger than 16 were ignored by Sesame, and Sesame would simply display the default font size.

16 is the largest Sesame will let you go with the font sizes for the Menu Font and the Secondary Font. 5 to 16 is the valid range.

If this is OK, that implies that there is a preferred sequence of INI lines.

If that is correct, where can sequence rules be found?

There is no order that they need to be in, They can come in any order. The problem appears to be that there is a space at the beginning of these three lines. That will cause them to not be recognized.

Code
Select All
 MENU FONT: Tahoma
 MENU FONT SIZE: 16
 JUST IN TIME COMPILATION: ON
No Space before this line
