Changing Font Size

SOLVED

Hi,

I am trying to change the font size for some of the text. This is a specific text that is located under the fields. Can somebody tell me the process to changing the text for this field. I guess what I am having trouble with is that I can not find the location of where this small text is happening. Any leads you can give me is appreciated. 

Thanks!

    Hello,

    Field is ITMREF. The screen is CONSCSP1. We are using the most recent patch and version of sage x3. It is not just this screen, but there are other screens as well where we are looking to increase the font for text that are under the field box. If you could tell us how to fix this, it would be greatly appreciated. 

    Thanks!

    Hi Chris,

    I don't believe it's possible to change this size. The description that shows is, because of the linked description which on that screen is set to long.

    Maybe you can try what it was tried on below, but I suggest open a case with your local support for confirmation.

    I had the same request and was able to change this.  The update is to the Syracuse Cascading style sheet (.css file), I updated the font size on three files, I also changed the font to "normal" the italic was difficult to read. You may need to clear your browser cache to see the changes, especially if you can playing with the size and what to change it again and again to see which you like best.

    From your Sage server navigate to the three files listed below and change the font size and/or font style for ".s-field-input-ref-desc", found on line 4814 in my file.  I use Notepad++ to find and edit these files.

    E:\Sage\SyracuseComponent\syracuse\bin\node_modules\syracuse-ui\themes\desktop\site.css 
        Line 4818: .s-field-input-ref-desc, .s-field-desc {
            font-size: 1.2em; (changed from 0.8)
            font-style: normal; (changed from italic)
            text-align: right;
    E:\Sage\SyracuseComponent\syracuse\bin\rel\node_modules\syracuse-ui\themes\desktop\site.css 
        Line 4818: .s-field-input-ref-desc, .s-field-desc {
            font-size: 1.2em; (changed from 0.8)
            font-style: normal; (changed from italic)
            text-align: right;
    E:\Sage\SyracuseComponent\syracuse\bin\temp\node_modules\syracuse-ui\themes\desktop\site.css 
        Line 4818: .s-field-input-ref-desc, .s-field-desc {
            font-size: 1.2em; (changed from 0.8)
            font-style: normal; (changed from italic)
            text-align: right;

    I use Notepad++ to find and edit these files.  If the above locations are not the same for you do a search with Notepad++ to find the correct files and lcoatrions.  To do that, open Notepad++ > Ctrl+F > Find in Files tab > Find what: .s-field-input-ref-desc > Filters: *.css > Directory: E:\Sage\SyracuseComponent\syracuse (yours may not be the E drive) > click Find

    One thing to note here is that if you update Syracuse you will need to make these changes again.

    ***Please remember to test this out in a Development environment and back up any files you are going to change.

    My users were very happy to have larger font and to be able to see it without squinting or moving closer to the monitor!

    Hope this helps and I hope Sage adds the ability to do this INSIDE X3!
