danklim 2 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Hi, I sometime use evernote to read song lyrics/chords while playing music from 5-10 feet away from the mac computer screen. When reading from that far from the screen, the text obviously appears very small which makes it difficult to read. I've tried several solutions to make the text bigger, but nothing has worked quite right yet. Could you please help me figure out the best solution for this issue? Here's what i've tried: - making the screen resolution smaller, which makes everything on the screen appear larger. this kind of works, but it drastically reduces my total screen real estate for other windows and it doesn't make the text quite as big as i would like. - Using the cmd + and cmd - buttons to zoom in on the note. this works pretty well, but there are two downsides. one is that it requires me to hit the zoom buttons again every time that i look at a new note. I often jump to different notes, so this is a bit of a hassle. Also, it only zooms in so much- it stops zooming after i hit the shortcut a few times. - I also see the menu has an option to change text size. this works perfectly , but takes a while to navigate to (and often crashes my evernote) . I sometimes use evernote from right in front of the computer too, so i would like the ability to quickly change back and forth between sizes (preferably with a keyboard shortcut or button) Is there any better solution that could make the screen easier to read? Thanks, Dan Link to comment

danklim 2 Posted September 2, 2017 Author Share Posted September 2, 2017 Thanks for the suggestion s2sailor ! I have tried presentation mode a bit. I just tried it again and I like how clean it is and it makes the text quite large which is nice. I'm not sure if its the best option because it takes up the full screen, and that reduces that total screen real estate for other applications. I will try it more though. Two questions about presentation mode: 1. Is there a keyboard shortcut for going to the next/previous note in presentation mode? 2. Is there any way to run the presentation mode in a resizeable window, instead of full screen? Link to comment
