    Hi, I'm wondering if there is any way to make things bigger in Rainmeter. Right now I'm running 1920x1200 resolution and everything is tiny - as you can see, it's really hard to read.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Have you tried increasing the 'font size' value in the configuration file?

    Yup. It only increases the size of the font - which messes up the formatting as everything else stays the same.

    I was sorta hoping for a global variable that I can edit to make everything bigger.

    Strangely enough, the proportions are fine with Aero enabled. It's just when I switch to a Vista basic theme that everything goes tiny.

    Ah, AFAIK, this happened to me too. I tried looking around for a solution but couldn't find any. Usually I have aero turned off when on battery, and everything I switch from AC to battery, rainmeter used to get messed up.
