Ability to change font size in RootsMagic 9?

Currently, I’m a RootsMagic 7 user and have found that the inability to increase the font size in the to-do-list and research log tools to be problematic for me. Does RootsMagic 9 allow the user to increase the font size anywhere in the program other than just with printing reports or charts?

Yes it does BUT it will change the size of the font in the whole database and all your databases – RM 8 has the same options…

Instead of a research log and to do list they have TASKS–so this is what it looks like a 100% ( you can also go smaller)


and this is at 150% ( the max)

( click on the images to see difference)-- all you have to do is open a file–go to settings and it is under the monitor-- then close RM completely and reopen it…

I have recently purchased an unusual monitor - the LG dual Up 28" display with 2560x2880. I am wanting to maximize usable screen resolution. It can easily show two RM windows one above the other. It’s a weird, ugly monitor.

Here’s my issue. The font used in the pedigree diagram is much larger than the font used for the list of names, and looks “funny.” Is there a way to change the size or even change the font used in the pedigree diagram?

Sorry @pbooth99 – there is no way to change the font—you can change the size BUT as discussed above , the size changes for all your files…


This is at 100% and the pedigree/ family view are much larger than the list of names-- the descendant’s view is abt the same size as the list of names
