Funny "font behaviour" while uploading pages texts
Posted: Sat July 12, 2008 09:57 AM UTC
This is not seriously bothering me, but I wanted to ask if I am the only one or if some of you also experienced this, or if it might be my computer and settings only.
Sometimes when I am uploading tips, the font size gets bigger while I upload the text. As if I would have pressed "control++", but I don't. It happened several times now, and is time and page independent.
When I close that page then and reopen it, all is back to my normal size.
Strange.

Hahahahahahaha, PJ :-)))) Somehow I knew that I'll get that title passed over from you :-)
But seriously - do you have any idea why this happens? I am a bit computer dumb :-))

Oh please, no googling! Think of Amsterdam and the preprations :-)
It is maybe my clumsy fingers. Or I get Alzheimers and don't know what I did a second ago, lol :-)

Just trash your German keyboard and try an American setting :)

Be aware we have a different keyboard layout here in the Netherlands.

BTW This was the only useful thing I found: http://www.dummies.com/WileyCDA/DummiesTip/Changing-the-Windows-Font-Size.id-1281,subcat-OS.html
