I can increase the font size anywhere else, including in the game room. But the words, buttons, and comments on the table itself are very small and I have a great deal of difficulty reading them. None of my usual tricks for enlarging screen sizes seems to help. Any suggestions?
It was very kind of you to give me such an extensive and detailed answer, Cube! I am opting to download a free magnifier so that I can use it in the lobby to see which tables are rated games without squinting. Thank you!
Answer
1. You're right about the usual tricks not working: Ctrl & + or -, or Ctrl & mousewheel up/down do the trick on browser windows, but not on 3rd party windows.
2. You can use the magnifying glass, supplied by microsoft, accesible by clicking start > all programs > accessories > accessibility > magnifying glass.
This displays a small window anywhere you choose, with the text around your cursor displayed.
If your monitor screen size is large enough, there should be plenty of room at the side of the table to position this window.
So, for example, if you set the magnification to 3 times, and make the 'magnifying window' a size of 300 x 300 pixels, it will display the 100 x 100 pixel area around your cursor magnified 3 times.
3. You can use other more user friendly on-screen magnifiers. Just do a Google search for 'Magnifying glass free download'. There are some which display the magnified area around your cursor exactly where your cursor currently is: this gives the appearance of using a 'real magnifying glass over your screen. I use MZoom and BSMag, but there are similar programs which may be even more suitable.
4. Again, if you go to start > all programs > accessories > accessibility > accessibility wizard, you can reduce your screen resoloution, make the text larger.
5. Specialist programs. There are programs available, such as the notorious 'card counters'. What these sort of programs do is read the text of the cards as they are played and display (in a separate window) the cards played and available in a different format. e.g.....
S: AK98 H:Q742 etc etc
These are all displayed in a graphical manner of the authors choosing, and are relatively easy to make. So, if you know a programmer, he could make some such program for you.
6. Other programs. It is also fairly easy to replicate certain controls on the Yahoo interface, and reproduce them in 'Chameleon' fashion to blend in with your window.
What does this mean in English?
Basically your Yahoo interface consists of a window with a blue left hand side, a yellow background, a picture of a table, a chatbox and listbox (players names at the right corner). Your 'controls' are the buttons on the blue part, and pictures (cards which you click) on the table picture.
It is easy to make a display of the buttons with larger fonts, and have this 'control panel' displayed anywhere you choose; and if identical in shape and colour, it could be displayed on top of the original buttons in a manner to blend in with the Yahoo interface. So, you click on your new buttons (with large writing), and the program sends a click to the corresponding original buttons.
The variable controls, such as the chatbox and list box would be harder to replicate, as the text changes from time to time: whilst it is feasible to read the text, enlarge it, and reproduce it somewhere, it would be a CPU and memory consuming task.
Other variable features, such as players names are easier to adjust.
It is also quite easy to change the colour of the fonts or background colour. Anything is possible.
If you email me a screenshot of your table, and amend it using Paintbox to show what sort of display you would like, I can probably make something to help you.

Will 3d projectors support ps3 3d games when the update is released?

Will 3d projectors support ps3 3d games when the update is released? Also has anyone currently got a 3d projector & how worth while would it be to get one considering the upcoming rise of 3d games & films?
Answer
yes and to give the perfect example go to the link i provided below and click on FAQ. The PJD6531w is 3d ready projector that i plan on purchasing and i've been researching my 3D possibilities for about 6 months now. A lot of people are completely unaware there are a wide range of different 3D options on the market today such as Nvidia 3d vision, Iz3D, 3D ready monitors and projectors. Practically all you have to do is get XpanD's x102 or x103 universal glasses which are 3D DLP ready which means they are compatible with any 3D ready DLP tv or projector, turn the 3d option on your projector, make sure you have the 3d activated in the game menu and on ps3 output settings also. that's it. I've included more links to make sure you get all the info you may need.
