Thank you, Dave. I have to dash over to some friends' for dinner, but I'll give it a go when I get back later.

Dave: I'd like to recommend that whomever determined the font sizes use the same size for the SubjectMarks page as the subjects within a thread. Right now they are different; the SubjectMarks page is one size up from the subjects. If SubjectMarks page = 1/4" spacing, thread Subjects = 3/16" spacing. To make the Subjects within a thread a MUCH more quickly readable 1/4", the SubjectMarks page size leaps to 13/16", which is W-A-Y too large.

I didn't measure the size down from 3/16" because I'd never use it, Dave, but only having a choice of 3/16", 1/4", and 13/16" makes for a less than pleasant SI experience if one feels most comfortable reading 1/4"--one is forced to keep changing the font size when going between the SubjectMarks page and a thread due to the step down in size.

My sugestions:

1. Have the programmer use the same size for the SubjectMarks page as the Subjects list within a thread.

2. Do whatever is necessary for people to get a font size slightly larger than 1/4", say 3/8" (or 5/16") if there is a refusal to consider my suggestion #1. Actually, even if #1 changes are made, I still suggest enabling some font sizes between 1/4" and 13/16".
