Since XMM does not (fully) support large scale fonts (quite a few controls were simply not accessible - especially in the edit views) I wonder if it would either be possible to add some configuration for font sizes or at least to pick up system wide set size values?

For lists (grid views they are called I think) a good and reasonable value would be the default font size value for "symbols". Menu items should respect the according system settings as well.

Really would love to see this soon - even a little hack would do it like some registry value; my preferred method of home computing is sitting in front of my flat screen with a viewing distance of so about 3 m. ;)

Second the idea of being able to set a font size, though I'd suggest a different approach.

Ideally there should be a default font size for text in the "grid" (i.e. the smallest text on the screen) and everything else would scale as a percentage of that, seeing how the forms are all done in XML.

I'm at a viewing distance of approx. 3m with a big screen TV, and have worked around this limitation by changing my windows default font size to 125% of normal. Unfortunately this workaround makes the fonts/menus for all of my other apps look funky

Using Windows 7, eXtreme Media Manger, CyberLink Power DVD Ultimate and Virtual Clone Drive to catalog and play back my library of DVD images (ISO)
