And while Rainmeter has a nice personality, I something bigger. I'm currently in Gnometer, although using Engima doesn't help. All of my configs are too small, making it either hard to read or impossible to decipher. As an example of what I mean, I have Picubed and Unfold III up.
Any ideas on what's causing it to be so small, and any ideas on how to fix it?

Re: Size Matters
What's your resolution?
Mines 1280 by 800 and that looks fine to me.
The bigger yours is, the smaller it'll look.

Re: Size Matters
Tried it. Went down to 800x600 (lowest possible resolution), and it didn't get any better. I think it may have to do with the code, but I can't code anything to save my life, so I would have no idea what I would be looking at or for.JpsCrazy wrote:What's your resolution?

Re: Size Matters
What's your DPI set to?
It should be 96, as that is the 'normal' state.
Display -> Settings -> Advanced -> General (That's the path in XP at least).

I don't think, therefore I'm not.

Nope, DPI is at 96.Chewtoy wrote:What's your DPI set to?

Here's the code for Unfold III, the one that I most want to use, and the one that's most noticeably small. I'm no good at code, so maybe someone out there can see something wrong with it.
I've already tried adding DynamicWindowSize=1, and it didn't work.

Re: Size Matters
That skin has font sizes of 30 and 12.
Enigma and gnometer use font size of 8, I think it is, by default.
Gnometer comes with a Configuration tool (Gnometer -> Settings) where you can choose what size you want (style).
So, they will seem smaller compared to the code you posted, but it's an easy fix.

Re: Size Matters
Well, changing the size in Gnometer didn't help, but that got me thinking about changing the font size in Unfold. I might just have to do this with every skin I add, but it's not a big deal. I just wish there was a better fix then just resizing the text, but if it works, it works.Chewtoy wrote:That skin has font sizes of 30 and 12.

Re: Size Matters
Well, I went into the code, changed the font size, along with the black background sizes. I also played with the positions of the text and black background. While it's not perfect, it gets the job done.
I'm satisfied with the results, feel free to explore my problem further and suggest any better solutions
