Any chance of making the new standard font smaller?

Hi Shaun

I've stumbled across the compact style. I can see two short posts at a time. That is a slight improvement; however, there is still far too much white space and I've generally stopped hanging around CycleChat as much although that has coincided with a trip away.

I'm very grateful for you creating and running the site.

@alicat do you have the 11" or 13" MacBook Air?

Would you mind posting a screen shot (using the Compact style) so I can compare with similar screen dimensions to see if I get a matching result?

Thanks

Hi @Shaun

I have the 11" version from c.2010.

Here is a screenshot [i.e. the whole screen] in Compact. Thanks for your efforts.

I've added the secondary nav bar back in. If it gets in the way for the majority of people using the Compact style, let me know and I can remove it again.

While it's nice to have it back, it's now on top of the start of each post, so I have to scroll back to see who posted...

@alicat - I've tried to replicate what you're seeing (based on your screenshot) and tried all the supported native resolutions and can't match it:

Supported resolutions:

16:9 ratio: 1366 x 768 - 1344 x 756 - 1280 x 720 - 1024 x 576
16:10 ratio: 1152 x 720 - 1024 x 640 - 800 x 500
4:3 ratio: 1024 x 768 - 800 x 600 - 640 x 480
3:2 ratio: 720 x 480

I'm wondering if you've got your screen zoomed-in by any chance?

Zoom in and out on a MacBook: You can zoom your screen in and out on a MacBook Pro (or MacBook Air) - hold down the [ctrl] key, and swipe upwards on the trackpad area to zoom in, then use your two fingers to swipe downwards to zoom out.

Would you mind checking whether you're zoomed-in and if so, zooming out to see if it looks any better?

Thanks,
Shaun

Hi @Shaun

Thanks for suggesting that.

I've just checked and my screen seems to be zoomed out already. I'll try to find the resolution that I am using in the morning.
