Browser Font Size limit

Just talk about kJams stuff with each other, describe things you did that worked, talk about your setup, anything that doesn't fit into the other forums!

Browser Font Size limit

Post by franks »

I like to see my song lists in large font sizes say around 17 or 18.

I've changed "kJams Preferences.plist" and indeed the browser changes size accordingly.....but with one hitch.

The 'Pitch' column cannot display the pitch setting and appears to be limited to fonts less than 16.

Is there any fix to this??

i assume you're on a mac. aside from making the column wider (which i have fixed) it looks fine to me:

My current versions of kJams Lite & Pro Tryout do not allow me to widen the "Pitch" column in the browser.

PS Download of latest Mac version of Lite resulted in defective app. Tried several times but results not good.

i see now you were actually talking about the column width. i'd like to ask that in the future if there is a problem that you please describe EXACTLY the problem, rather than sorta-kinda describing something "about" the problem.

eg:
"you can not stretch the pitch column wide enough to accommodate a font size larger than 15"

is far more clear than:
"The 'Pitch' column cannot display the pitch setting and appears to be limited to fonts less than 16"

the latter makes me think the pitch is simply not shown. the former makes me understand.

BTW: this fix will be in tonight's build

also, in your new post, you say "the result is a defective app", that does not tell me exactly what is wrong. do you mean there is no icon? no download at all? and icon with a "do not enter" bar thru it? or, when you try to launch, does the OS give a "can't open kjams" error message? some other error message? or does kJams actually launch, but then kJams has some kind of error? does it crash after launch? or what? there are a thousand possibilities.

again i implore you: be specific. tell me EXACTLY what you tried and EXACTLY what didn't work.

OK, OK

Your admonishment will be heeded to best of my ability in future.
