Changing font name on Start Menu
Name on Start Menu
Friday, February 15, 2008 by Bluemoon-2006 | Discussion: Skinning
How do I change the font size of the name on the Start Menu? I can see how to change the other items on the Start Menu but not the name. There always seems to be a big square blocking the name and it doesn't allow me to click on it or edit it.

Thank you, Kitty. However, I am still only seeing the picture and not the name in the userpane. I don't see a text settings.
Is this because I'm trying to edit a "locked" skin that someone else created?
I can save other changes under a new name and should be able to change that too but am not having luck finding the font properties for that section.

Make sure the skin u r using is correctly assigning the position of the username. Wont matter what you do with the username font if it is not positioned correctly.

blue, if you are refering to seeing the font move as you adjust.......that just wont happen in skinstudio, you wont see the results until after you save and reapply in wb. other suggestions......could be the font colour? rendering it impossible to see......or Vstylers suggestion is a good one too......... if its not in the right position, you wont see it either.
As for the skin being locked.....i dont know about that one, ive never experimented with a locked skin, (shrugs) you will find the font properties under the 'userpane' section like i sugested before, take yr time to follow every step i gave you, and you will eventually find it. im not sure if you are using skin studio 5 or 6, im giving advice for 5, not 6.
You can also disable the piccy in the userpane too.......(an afterthought i thought id add..)

I'm trying to change the size of my name on one of the WBs that I installed. I'm assuming that I can't do that while I'm currently using the skin and have to do that when it's closed and I'm using a different skin.
When I click on Userpane in the left panel where there is a menu, there is no link for Text editing as you described. There is just a pic link under Userpane where the Start Panel controls are located.
It appears that I might have to save it as a new name before attempting it, which I haven't tried yet. Or it's just not possible.

I have Skin Studio 5.0.1, Build 112 (1999-2006). It is probably older than yours.
Eternal Love is one of the WBs that I was trying to change the name on to make it bigger.

you will see the window with the font properties, the name of the font ect...
The font height is what you need to change in order for the font to be either larger or smaller...
