Hi,

I recently started to use a new computer, Microsoft Surface running on Windows 10. I have a big problem with the font size of the Sierra Charts on this computer, it's so small and impossible to read (esp on the X and Y axis). I tried adjusting the resolution of the computer but it doesn't change the font size in Sierra at all. Please help.

See the attached screen cap.

Thank you,
Carolina

Thanks David for you prompt reply.

I tried all the options under Global Settings > Graphics Settings - Global > Chart Text > Fonts. However, none of those can change the font size of the:
1. X axis
2. Y axis and
3. those numbers on the candle sticks.

Please give me specific instructions for these items, much appreciate it.

Thanks,
Carolina

Increasing font for [Global Settings >> Graphics Settings - Global >> Fonts tab >> Chart Text] should increase font for all items mentioned by you.

Read through the Introduction section here to understand that there are two different Graphics Settings windows:

You need to use the correct one.
