Font too small (and crashing)

Post by yarguy »

The font size you are using in the music player with the Monkey Groove and the Black and Orange Monkey skins is too small to be readable. It is okay in the two Material Design skins.

Also, MM5 (2116) crashes whenever I change skins.

Screen resolution is 1680 x 1050, which works fine for everything but the music player in those skins.

Not fine there. Much smaller than the Monkey Groove. White against blue background is always harder to read than black on white background. Not everyone has 20-year old eyes. But if you want to insist on making things difficult for users.....

My eyes are closer to being 70-year old than they are to either 20, or 60.
FWIIW I find the MM5 skin options an improvement over MM4. Specifically the scroll bar positions are easier to locate. And the skins are better looking.
Want a dark skin for MM5? This is the one that works best for me .. elegant, compact & clear.
