Author Topic: steam chat suddenly got bigger in the font?  (Read 2478 times)


I just noticed this earlier, too. It's quite odd

I have it too and I hate it.


Looks fine to me.
Hey its me!\

I've decided to opt into the Steam Beta Update and its from that, because I didn't get it before.

ohe

thats why


It mirrors the font in the Linux version, which I really like.

Where is the damn size control? I feel like Steam just became cool for the elderly. And that makes it too cool. :panda:

opt out of the beta, restart steam

I'm not leaving their room until they give me the option to change this - because we all know they intend to put it through.

You're loving with me. When I saw Marcem's post, I thought maybe it was a problem where the text matched Linux. Where is the option to toggle this?

Since the last update made the fonts even bigger, I've resorted to more extreme measures. I looked up methods of changing the font size and ended up with having to make my own Steam skin modification. At first, I tried only changing the font sizes, but that broke the layout of Steam. So for now, the skin takes complete control over Steam's layout, so if they do anymore crazy stupid changes, you won't be able to see it. But it fixes the text. Place the folder in the following ZIP file in the skins folder of your Steam directory:

But I am not in any beta

the text is SLIGHTLY bigger, big deal.


I was feeling sick yesterday. My head hurt, my eyes were bugging out. And then the text was progressively getting loving bigger every update, which wasn't helping my headache when I've stared at the same size text for years now. It is needlessly big now. I'm feeling better today, but I'm not reverting this. It's bullstuff.
