13.4 Apollo font settings
Besides the general system font properties as set on the Properties|Display Properties|Appearance tab (right
mouse click on the windows desktop), the appearance of Apollo can be adjusted independently from all other
applications.
To adjust the Apollo appearance, proceed as follows:
• define environment variables:
ApolloFontSize: for general texts and menu texts
ApolloFontName: for general texts and menu texts
ApolloLabelFontSize: for all labels and tool tip texts
ApolloLabelFontName: for all labels and tool tip texts
To add or change the values of environment variables
• Open System in Control Panel.
• On the Advanced tab, click Environment Variables, then click the name of the user variable or system vari-
able you want to change, as follows:
• Click New to add a new variable name and value.
• Click Edit to change a current variable name and value.
• Click Delete to remove a variable name and value.
If you are not logged on as administrator to the local computer, the only environment variables
you can change are user variables.
To open a Control Panel item, click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then dou-
ble-click the appropriate icon.
The changes are saved in the registry so they are available automatically the next time you
start your computer.
You may have to close and reopen running programs for the new settings to take effect.
Or
• use the command line parameter
/FontName: /FontSize for general texts and menu texts
/LabelFontName: /LabelFontSize for all labels and tool tip texts
