Crayven 0 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Hey everybody, is there a way to change the font size without changing the screen resolution by itself? Was less complicated in fewer versions. :D The Screen and term-api doenst provide that anymore. Thx a lot for your help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
0 payonel 21 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 nothing has changed in the term api, and there was never a way to change font size, only ever could you change the resolution, via the gpu require("component").gpu.setResolution(newWidth, newHeight) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
0 Ta©ti Tac0Z 2 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 yes you cannot change the font size but you can use a big letter api but i know thats not what you want Quote Link to post Share on other sites
0 Crayven 0 Posted September 15, 2018 Author Share Posted September 15, 2018 @payonel Sure there was - in times of 'peripheral.wrap(side)' instead of 'component.get() and monitors instead of screens. it's mentioned here: http://computercraft.info/wiki/Term_(API) thought there is a solution that this would in the new version, too. didn't play FTB for a long time but try to get used of it again. nevertheless, thx for helping me out@Ta©ti Tac0Z hm - could you explain this further? thing is I'm programming a controller for a extreme reactor again - but the letters are too small to read it from below. Changing resolution results in less detailed display (eg for small lines) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
0 Molinko 43 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 @Crayven I believe you have OC and CC confused for being related. Setting the size of text was never available in OC like it was in CC Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Changing resolution results in less detailed display (eg for small lines) well am not too sure what to explain? poeple have made big letter apis witch will create letters useing box charectors. nerver used it my self but if you want to have bigger letters and if you don't want to change the resolution then that maybe the fix? i know (even more ) pixylated charectors may look bad but its that or resulotion change there is no other way Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you increase your font size, you are reducing the number of lines you can print to If you decrease your resolution, your font appears larger, and you reduce the number of lines you can print to It is effectively the same Quote Link to post Share on other sites
0 Crayven 0 Posted September 16, 2018 Author Share Posted September 16, 2018 yeah...and the max Resolution is bound to the Gpu which is in T3 160×50, right? How can I make the screen larger? The max screen size is descripted in the config, but not the maxRes for GPUs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
0 payonel 21 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 our screen resolutions are not exposed in the config. you can make a multi-block of screens though, if that helps. they auto connect, and I think they have a 6x8 max grouping, or something like that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
0 Crayven 0 Posted September 16, 2018 Author Share Posted September 16, 2018 yeah - and the maximum grouping size is editable in the config. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
