[Semi-OT]: HTML-Viewer and CHM in "Win 7 125%"

Post by *Peter »

I use "Win 7, Display size 125%" and found that

- FF and IE increases correct to 125%
- F3 in TotalCommander and (self created) CHM-Files ignore it and display it rather small

To be honest, "F3 in TC" is not really a problem for me, but how can it be done to increase CHM-display?

Thanks

Have you tried button 'Font +-' on CHM viewer toolbar?
(F1, 5th toolbar button)

Hm, I thought it is CHM viewer feature, but you're right, I don't see it in another CHMs... :D However it is strange that button name is localized... E.g. 'Ordering' button I see untranslated.

BTW I think you should try 'Options - Browser options: Appearance (bottom right button, don't know how it is named in English): Ignore web page font sizes'...

Hmmmh, the side effect is that now browsing with IE in Internet is completely crazy ...
(Not bad for FF users, but maybe for others .)

Well, it seems that options touches all IE windows specifying them to use same font sizes always... Anyway, it's good that it work for you. :)

I like slister for chm display
http://www.totalcmd.net/plugring/slister.html
just update SumatraPDF.exe with zeniko's portable build (I prefer to use Sumatra's simple html renderer not ie's so I set ChmUI [
UseFixedPageUI = true
]
It's on by default in zeniko's build.
http://software.zeniko.ch/sumatrapdf/SumatraPDF-dev.exe
and add chm to the detection:
MULTIMEDIA & (EXT="PDF" | EXT="XPS" | EXT="DJVU" | EXT="DJV" | EXT="PS" | EXT="EPS" | EXT="CBZ" | EXT="CBR" | EXT="CHM" | EXT="MOBI" | EXT="EPUB" | EXT="FB2" | EXT="ZFB2" | EXT="FB2Z" | EXT="PDB" | EXT="PRC" | EXT="TCR"| EXT="HTM" | EXT="HTML" | EXT="TIF" | EXT="TIFF" )

Hi iana

thanks, but that's not the problem - I don't have problems to display some chm for me, but to create a chm for others which have to use it in standard mode.
