Hi all,

Please forgive typos because I can't see/read what I am typing 
now. Fonts are simply too small to read. This is being typed 
with courier 10 pitch font, style regular, and set at 20 in size. 
What apprears on the screen is the same in 'size' regardless if 
size is set at 10, 20, or 64. 'Type' of font does change with what 
I desire to change to, style does not change - this phrase is 
typed in bold italiics but no change on my screen, and the size of 
fonts do not change on my screen. This sentance is typed at size  
64 with no change in the actual font size on screen.

The changes above are made from toolbar/settings/configure 
Kontact/appearance. From Kontact inbox screen I also tried to 
make changes using 'configure KMail'. 

Changing fonts through star/preferences/control 
center/peripherals/lookNfeel/fonts/general seem to affect all 
fonts *except* what I type in Kontact compose or Kmail.

Changing 'screen size' or what I call 'resolution' works on icons 
and screen spacing but not on fonts. The resoution is always 
reset to 1280X1024. I try 1024X768 and settings in between those 
two and the change in resoution reverts back on end session or 
restart or shut down computer or ctrl-alt-backspace.

My attempt to change screen size or resolution is made by clicking 
star/preferences/control center/oeripheraals/displayscreen size/ 
change size/aplly/OK. then the screen goes black for a second, 
then screen comes up again, with settings as they should be,  
asking for confirmation of screen size or not. I accept and 
screen size or resolution apprears to be as I wanted it until I 
end session, or restart or shut down 

I just restarted (thru star/logout/restart) to verify and, yes, 
screen resolution is went from 1024X768 back to 1280X1024 and 
the actual screen corresponds to 1280X1024. The font size in 
toolbar/settings/kmail is still at 64, as set in first paragrah. 
And I still cannot read the sreen very well.

I thought that, like Windows, resolution or screen size would be 
changed in MDK Control Center in Display. But maybe in MDK Display 
means something else. It sure is difficult to undersstand what 
happens if Display is supposed to change the screen resolution.
