Large Fonts in Web Views

We use SolarWInds web views to monitor alerts and events at our Helpdesk. The alerts and events are displayed on large-screen monitors at the front of our Helpdesk room. Often there are agents on the back row more that 30 feet away from the monitors. I would like to increase the size of the fonts displayed on the web pages for the Helpdesk's views. Increasing the size of fonts in Internet Explorer does not do it.

Anybody know how? Thanks.

You can go into the Admin -> Web Console Settings and adjust the Font sizes for your charts. Also try increasing the width of your columns.

If you were using Firefox you could press ctrl -/+ to increase or decrease the Font size on the fly.

Also, while IE6 sometimes can't change font sizes, IE7 always can.

I have the Font Size in Web Console Settings set to LARGE, but they are still too small. Any way to make them larger?

If not, then on the Orion NPM wish list I would like to be able to set the font size using Truetype to whatever the font supports.

For Firefox ctrl -/+, is that different that choosing Font Size in View in IE6? Font Size in View in IE 6 does not adjust the font of the Events listed in our view.

Thanks.

Sorry that didn't help, maybe it is time for the wish list. This has been discussed before....

That's like implying a Chevy is the same as a Toyota.
If you've never driven a Toyota, you don't know what your are missing :-p

Trust meet it works:

Hello

We also use Orion in a NOC on a number of beamers and i have a simular problem.

If i enlarge the font size (in IE or in the css files) i see the larger font, but then the part of the screen displaying the query (select an network device, event type etc) becomes also larger.

Also in the alert view i would like te loose a column (the column network device and network object contain the same info) losing this column would create space for a larger font

Does anyone know if and how to change this?

Regards

I am trying to do the same thing and have used firefox with CTRL +/-

that does work for some things, but the display then isn't really useable because other parts of the screen get lost, either the bottom or a 3rd column.

There must be a good NOC view/Large LCD screen page somewhere but I have searched everywhere and can't find one or how to do it.
