GWX Bigger font size possible?
 
Ahoi fellow submariners,


after many years I came back to my fav sim and I'm having a blast.



I run GWX with the Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920x1080 final mod on Windows 10 and it is working like a charm (mostly).


But one problem: I can hardly read many of the texts and numbers, especially the ones on the navigation map. Drawing a line with the ruler is especially at night is a guessing game because I have a hard time recognizing if the numbers are 0,5 or 0,6 and so on. Also the grid numbers can sometimes be a daunting task to find out.


So my question would be: Is there any way to increase the size of said numbers or the font in general? Also a little bit more contrast for the map markers at night would be really nice.


Any help is highly appreciated.

Thanks for pointing out, I did a search for "font size" on this forum but this one didn't show up...


Anyhow I had a look at the menu file but despite being not a complete nub in changing values in .ini files I cannot find where to alter the font size for the numbers the ruler or pencil create on the nav map.


I found an entry for the nav map (group G31), but this one only seems to depict the general composition of the nav map screen. Altering font sizes there had no effect whatsoever.

That is a good start, thank you for pointing out!


Now if I could make the numbers a bit bigger as well I'd be a very happy camper, err submariner :Kaleun_Salute:
