Is there a way to increase the size of the display in the Field Explorer?

dgillz · Jan 28, 2018

Crystal Reports 2013. The question says it all. I can change my font size in the formula editor so I can read it. I can go to view->zoom so I can read the actual layout of the report better. I can find no way to change the tiny display size of the field explorer. Has anyone ever done this?

From what I recall, the font sizes, types are controlled by Windows setting. I never had an issue with seeing the objects in the field explorer, so I have not attempted to adjust it.

I don't think so. This is way, way smaller than my windows settings, which are already set to a large font and large icons because my eyesight isn't that good. In fact it is smaller than any application I run.

Well in Windows 7 I went to Personalize, Display, Set custom text size (DPI) and it changed the font size in the field explorer (among other items).
