Let's see if anyone knows how I can change the font size to be marked within the red circle from the registry. The others and I have since record in 'Window Metrics' but which are within the red circle there is no way. It is the default font of system , for ye see him, is the font shown for example in the run window when you press the key combination 'Windows + R'.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

"Segoe UI"="Arial"

Or replace Arial with your choice of font.

Not at all helpful, but do you have a link to that wallpaper?

Ok, but i'm asking for fontsize. That way only change the type, right?

On a related note, I'd love to know how to reduce the border width to the RP look - now that the corners are square, we can thin down the borders and not make it butt-ugly as a drawback.

That site has a lot of other cool tweaking software for Windows 8 too.

I did it like this (using Kroeger 05_55 pixel font). The version of this font is Bitmap (.fon) and it only has one size (very, very small), so any size that the OS tries to set gets ignored :)

What I'm looking for is to use the default font of the system, but change its size. Have a screenshot of how it looks?

Want to know how its done go back and look at that key. Downside, you don't get to use that font... but oh well I'm running a netbook so I can't afford that blurry bs.. Maybe you'll think twice before talking crap about someone's name on your forum. I am not a spammer.

Ok... I wouldn't do this. After playing around with it all day, I discovered. Your just gonna make a mess.... And my netbook is running 10x better then it did with 7. So If you wanna play around with it, otherwise I wouldn't recommend wasting your time.

When it comes to fonts you are better off leaving them alone. There was a hack that changed Segoe UI to Tahoma but it made a mess of my themes so I changed it back.

    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
    • Watch Louis Rossmann's recent experience on YouTube about trying to get a warranty replacement from Samsung. It's crazy.
    • That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.
    • They use FREE AI. They aren't paying for this meme-generating slopware...
    • Gotta' buy that there Rufus guy a beer if I ever meet him. He makes good stuff.
