Change of font style in tabs

from Stardock Forums

Hi,

I have been trying for the last couple of days to change the font (size, style etc.) in new OD 2, and I just can't find the option. Maybe it's there, but WHERE?

Settings -> Change label font style

 

I believe that's the one. It's not under the tab or dock settings but the more 'general settings' I believe

Thanks Alban987 for the reply. Sorry I didn't make myself clear. I meant TABS not labels. How to change the font and style in TABS names. Any help here?

Thanks

You know what....I can't seem to find it either. And to be missing such a basic option in the beta that was readily available in the previous release. :O

I just tested that one and it only change the font for when you hover over an icon, not the tab font.

The tabs font style/size has never been changeable, all that could/can be changed via the .ini file for dock is text color and shadow color.

Sure it could, it was part of the style settings in the config. Was the bottom button "change font style on tabs." Can't change it via the ini yes, but through the config of course. Just don't know where it is in 2.0.

My bad, must try not to half recall and post while eating supper, I had the text when showing for entries half in mind not being able to have the color changed, which I have noticed is another option missing, 1.9 had no labels, show below or on mouseover.

Thanks, guys, for sharing your thoughts. Well, I found a work-around. Just keep the old OD installed. Run it, change the font style, size, etc. of the names of the tabs and then close it. Next Open the OD2-and voila. This is temp, of course. Give it a try, and let everybody know if it works for you.
