    I have made a comparison illustration of what PS Elements expects me to be able to read with that of a freebie application.

    This time there should be no problem with the link.

    I think you'll see what I have been talking about.

    Agreed that it is quite small in comparison. (BTW, the link above is not tagged correctly).

    I don't have elements, so I have no idea what menu settings there are. On the basis that you have tried to increse font sizes, it might be an idea to try and change the menu colours instead? Is that an option?

    Appears to be unfixable and has been annoying people for years.

    I'm confused: but as you get older it does happen:D. Can you explain here or with a PM, please?

    I'm glad it's not me being a rocking horse Elements user.

    If Adobe cannot be a***d enough to heed complaints, IMO it is evidence both of its arrogance and lack of concern for the small amateur user.

    Never used W7 but this might make Adobe menu bar clearer.if you've not tried already.

    Only other thing I can suggest is that you knock your screen resolution down a notch or two.
    This will give you the desired result, but unfortunately it will degrade the image quality slightly because your monitor will then not be running at it's optimum resolution.
    Remember kids, it's the volts that jolt and the mills that kill.

    When I looked at the post originally the link wasn't coded correctly, or wasn't displaying properly. I was able to see the full link, including which folder it resided in on your PC.

    I can tell you that your first name begins with a 'G' :D
