Ramo Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Sometimes when I respond to a post my typing will be the tiny font, underlinde, or the font with a line through it. It appears that others are having this issue as well. I usually notice it, and change the font to this type. Some don't notice it, and that tiny font is hard to read. Is this a problem with the web site, or is it an idividual computer problem? For one species to mourn the death of another is a new thing under the sun. -Aldo Leopold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cris Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I've heard of this problem before but it's never showed up with me unless I accidentally clicked one of the buttons at the top left when clicking in the text box to type. If you select the top left button "toggle editing mode," you shouldn't ever have your font too small or unwanted font decorations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Ramo, I think it has to do with where you click in the Reply box when posting. Happens to me all the time. I've learned to try to click into the box very low in the box, so that it doesn't select a font formatter accidentally. It definitely happens since the upgrade.

ashcraft Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 It happens to me also. What it is, your cursor is touching one of the font boxes, and it selects that automatically without clicking, as you can see this is bold type, and that is why.

Lloyd Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Tim is correct, it has to do with where you click when you want to write a message. If you click the area with any of the selections at the top, even though you can't see them, whatever the cursor is over will be selected when you click. To stop having this happen, all you have to do is click the box below that area with the selections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Make sure that the "x2" - subscript or the "x2" - superscript buttons are not selected. This is typically what I find when I've helped others correct the font. The human mind has the ability to believe anything is true. - JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
