F6 Edit Window text

When using the F6 key to open an expanded window to edit an elements information, is there a way to set the size of the font that will be used in that window?

I know you can increase the font size via the Format drop down menu, but I want to permanently set it larger.

Please advise.

Hello,

To do this you will want to make a simple change in your sesame.ini file which can be found in the C:\Sesame2 folder. Open the file with Notepad and add the following line

FIELD EDITOR FONT SIZE: 16

You can choose a font size from 4 up to 42.

Hello,

Yes you can with the following sesame.ini file entries:

FIELD EDITOR WIDTH: 600
FIELD EDITOR HEIGHT: 600

Minimum size for either is 100, maximum is, well you're really limited by your monitor resolution as making it too big is kinda useless. You can also instead of a number specify FULL and the F6 editor will open full Width and/or Height of your monitor.

Thanks!  That helps a lot.  Is there a list or book on all the ini capabilities?
