BasicMaker Editor now has tiny fonts? [SOLVED]

[ozboomer]

Hi, all...

I've just opened BasicMaker to try and deal with some code... and for some reason, the font size in the editor has become minuscule, viz:-

The File > View > Customize settings haven't been changed, viz:-

Changing the font values doesn't alter the way the editor looks.

It's been working Ok for ages.... but maybe it's related to a recent Windows update? Recent Windows Updates have been:-

• 2025-07 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 24H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5062553) (applied 9-JUL-2025)

• 2025-07 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8.1 for Windows 11, version 24H2 for x64 (KB5056579) (applied 9-JUL-2025)

As it is, BasicMaker is unusable, as I can't read the code, any watch windows, etc.

I'm using BasicMaker Professional 2024 (rev S1224.0308) 64bit under Windows 11 Home, 64-bit.

Any suggestions on how this problem might be resolved?

Thanks.

Select a functioning printer driver in File | Print. The "Generic / Text only" driver is unusable.

Pretty weird design 'feature' that a Printer setting should affect the User Interface... although, those limited available fonts were definitely a clue.

A drastic solution... but sometimes y'just have t'do what you need to, I guess...

File > Options > View > Manage > Reset

...all settings.. default values... : YES

...restart BasicMaker... : YES

...User Interface settings (as required) : OK

File > Options > View:

...and the editor looks Ok... but 'tis still curious how it changed... Maybe it WAS as simple as changing the printer somewhere else updated the 'system default' (I guess).
