Advanced size of text and other items in creators update
Advanced size of text and other items in creators update is missing. My screen resolution requires this feature, where is it in creators update? If it is removed, fine, I'll just revert back to last update and lock it down.
There are several other threads discussing this the removal of the Display Control Panel, location of advance text sizing. Here is more information, and some suggestions:
There is an "official" response from a Microsoft engineer, Stephanie M., in the Feedback Hub with the title "Advanced Display settings control panel was removed".
The first paragraph of her response is:
"The “Change only the text size” option was turned off in Windows 10 Creators Update. Unfortunately, the setting was not supported throughout the entire system. For example, it didn’t work with the Start menu, Cortana, Edge and
some applications."
Personally, I think this is a terrible response, and was a terrible decision by Microsoft.
However, there are some solutions. There are 3rd party programs that provide the functionality of adjusting the size of individual components. These include "Winaero
Tweaker" and "System Font Size Changer".
I prefer Winaero Tweaker as it is more powerful and has some other registry tweaking tools.
On the other hand, System Font Size Changer is simpler. It only adjusts the text size of the few items you mentioned.
