my Design View content displays WYSIWG in RH8 in 8pt or small pixel UI

[Jan7272]

I got upgraded to Windows 7 and I can't get the RoboHelp WYSIWYG to display my topic content as set up in my css. I selected the design editor internal as my default. The html is correct -- calling my Normal style as Verdana 10pt and when I select the view option, it correctly displays. As a whole, RH is assigning to my workspace a very small pixel  to all the styles. So am I having a WYSIWG editor problem in my design view or am I having a Windows 7 problem? I've adjusted all the Windows 7 setting and it has no affect on RH8 HTML.

i don't know if this makes a difference, but my new Windows 7 machine is a laptop and the one I previously had was a tower with Windows XP and i didn't have any workspace issues with font size.

Hi there

In RoboHelp, does it change if you give focus to the editor and click View > Zoom > 100%?

Cheers... Rick

Hi Rick, I've got the Design view set to 100% - I tried increasing that just so i could see it but I need it to be WYSIWG. My Windows 7 screen resolution is the recommended setting and the option to make it easier to read on the screen is set to Medium 125% DPI Windows XP settings. I tried different settings for that one and it didn't affect RH. Of course adjusting the screen resolution to lower resolution helps but it's fuzzy and not a true WYSIWG.

Thanks, Jan
