Re: [LegacyUG] Problem with font size on generated pedigree output
Windows Grep is shareware and can be downloaded here: http://www.wingrep.com/download.htm John John, thanks for your suggestion...perhaps you can help me a bit more and point me to a place where I can find the tool, or is it standard part of Windows?

It is a pity that Legacy does not allow this. The specific directory with my pedigree output contains thousands of single, small files.

RE: [LegacyUG] Problem with font size on generated pedigree output
It's so easy for the viewer to alter font sizes when they're viewing a website. Just hold down the ctrl key while rolling the scroll wheel on a wheel mouse! In some instances, a viewer needs to go to Tools Internet Options in IE and click on the Accessibility button on the General tab. Select Ignore font sizes specified on web pages. There are two other options, the Ignore background colors is one that I've also found extremely helpful when people use busy backgrounds or ones that the font doesn't show up well on. FireFox has a similar option and I'm sure Opera probably does also. Thanks for using Legacy.

Windows Grep can do global search and replace on all the files in a directory structure (including subdirectories, if desired). It understands regular expressions (if you're familiar with them).

Re: [LegacyUG] Problem with font size on generated pedigree output
There are no available font controls and the program handles sizing very poorly, making some data nearly unreadable. This has been complained about since the day after the web generation function was introduced. After I do a build, I use a good text editor (UltraEdit is my choice) to make changes across all files, stripping out most font size coding.

Rob, Yes, I do it and change the size of the boxes. However, are you sure you have picked the correct one to change? The fact is that the details below the Page Holder's name are reduced.

RE: [LegacyUG] Problem with font size on generated pedigree output
Wm, I'm not quite with, you as I was referring to the fact the Legacy generates the tiny font sizes and that I was also changing the font sizes in my output. I also asked whether Rob was sure he wanted to change the font size he indicated as that size (and the html he used to illustrate his point) is actually that used by Legacy in the boxes containing the links. I have reread what I wrote and still cannot see where I suggested that Rob had created the sizes. To be honest I quite like different sized fonts for different purposes but that is not to say someone shouldn't have them all the same. In any event, what we are saying is basically the same ie. that yes it can be done but not from within Legacy and another program is necessary.
