Hi folksIs there a way to get this screen in Outlook 2016/2019.Here in Outlook 2010 you can easily adjust the font size and type in the folder list (navigation pane) and other things which makes it much more readable on a large monitor - sometimes default fonts are too tiny - especially when viewed on large screens!!I can't seem to get to similar screens in Outlook 2016/2019.In Some places you can't set size either - you just get choice of small, large, larger!!!!!!! Definitely a retrograde step IMO.Cheersjimbo.
Color fonts are coming to Microsoft Office and Windows but progress is slow and patchy. Here’s a quick summary of color fonts and the occasional, erratic support in Outlook, Word and other Office programs. What are color fontsSince the beginning of Mac and Windows we’ve had single color fonts. Usually black but can be changed to another single color from the Home Font Color selector in Office.Color fonts can display multiple colors within the character like these symbols or emoji.Almost all the fonts supplied with Windows and Mac are monochrome fonts The exception is Segoe UI Emoji which has colored emoji. There are other color fonts that can be installed in Windows or Mac, such as the.Technically there are four different types of color font but OpenType-SVG fonts is the major format that’s prevailed in a minor format war.
OpenType-SVG color fonts are supported by Microsoft in Windows 10, Apple in MacOS 10.14 (Mojave, the current MacOS), iOS 12 and later. Windows 10 got some color font support in the late 2015 (Anniversary) release which was improved in the first 2016 update (Creators).Color fonts should include a monochrome fallback version for when the program can’t display the full color character. That’s vital when it comes to Microsoft Office, even the latest Office 365 for Windows. Color font supportJust using a color font won’t make them appear in a document, email or program. The programs themselves must also be retooled to display the colors, as well as the operating system. Without development work at the program level, you’ll just see a black version of the character.The need for program support is starkly visible in Microsoft Office which only has very limited support for color fonts.MS Office support for color fonts could politely be called a ‘work in progress’.
Tony Roche’s term ‘‘ is more appropriate. Color fonts only in Outlook 365At present, color fonts are visible in Outlook 365 for Windows and Mac. The 365 version of Word, Excel and PowerPoint only show the monochrome versions of color symbols.Copy a color font image (from Microsoft’s own Segoe UI Emoji) to Word and you’ll get a plain monochrome version instead.However, that’s not consistent.
As you’ll see later, some Segoe UI Emoji do appear in colored in a Word 365 document. Color fonts in emailsIf you added color emoji to an Outlook email, there’s no guarantee that the email receiver will see the color version or anything at all.That’s because the Windows 10 emoji shortcut (Win +. Fullstop/period) inserts symbols from Segoe UI Emoji font.
The receiver might not have that font or a color equivalent.
