    Change Text Scale via command line or other routine/program?


    Hello, Im looking for a way to change the display resolution and size of text, apps, and other items from a command line batch file or some other one-click routine. I found an old/small program called QRes.exe that changes the resolution which is great (qres.exe /x:2048 /y:1152). However, it does not affect the text size. I currently want to adjust the text scale from 200% to 150%; then later run a second routine to return the scale to 200%. Does anyone know of a command line or some other free program that will adjust the text? Im running Win10-Home. Thanks, Steve K.

    :)

    GPU-Z what command line parameter ?

    Suggestion: /? (-?) and /help (-help) command-line arguments to show a list of all possible arguments in a small window. *Smile Change Text Scale via command line or other routine/program? :)

    Change Text Scale via command line or other routine/program?

    Command line/tab

    QUESTION/suggestion:
    * Why not remember the last active tab?
    For example, if you are on tab 2 and close the program, then run it again, for the program to open tab 2 again. But if the -tab X command-line option is used, then the program goes to X tab, regardless of last active tab.

    Does that make sense?
