Hi there,

What Design Theme are you using in Actinic?
This can be found under Design | Themes.

Hi Menar
I am using (non css) Dome

[pinbrook]

if you are using a non css theme you will have to edit each and every template which has a <font> tag in it

Or change themes to a css one and just change the css

Hi there,

HERE to download the Advance User Guide which has the NETQUOTEVAR dictionary. What you can do is take the variable you want to change the font of and then insert font tags around that variable.

For example, if you wanted to change the font of product name locate the variable NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTNAME which can be found in Advance | Template Manager | Section | ProductLine

Insert font tags around that variable so it reads,
<font face="Comic Sans MS" size="12"> NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTNAME </font>

If you goto Help | Find type the name of the variable you are looking for and this will list the templates that variable appears.

Hope this helps

I will try that

Many thanks
Martyn

Hi

I also want to change the text of my entire catalog to a smaller size. I am using a clean layout. Are these css and exactly what is the difference between css and non-css. From reading posts, it seems as thought the css themes are easier to manipulate.

Thanks

You need to go to 'Advanced | Template Manager'.

If you are looking at a blue and white graphical thing, then click 'Change View' so you see the gray temmplate manager. Go to the 'Miscellaneous' tab and click on 'CSS Files'. Click 'Edit'.

Go to 'Edit | Find' in Notepad and search for:

font-size:x-small

Replace any of these you find with

font-size:xx-small

That should do it.

Hi Chris,

This worked great! I checked the 'Advanced /Template Manager " Miscellaneous tab, CSS Files template but couldn't figure out how to make all the text, including descriptions, to change to bold.

Can you help?
Thanks Bonnie

Are you sure you want to do this? It will look a bit odd.

Anyway, what you need to do is:

Open the actinic.css file again.

Look at the top where it says:

body, table, th, td{
color:NETQUOTEVAR:FGCOLORCSS;
font-size:x-small;
font-family:CUSTOMVAR:ACTCSSFONTFAMILY;
}

Change this to read:

body, table, th, td{
color:NETQUOTEVAR:FGCOLORCSS;
font-size:x-small;
font-family:CUSTOMVAR:ACTCSSFONTFAMILY;
font-weight:bold;
}

help with text need

Chris

I have changed all that you said regarding the text size, however, my Product Titles are still in very large text.

What do I need to change to reduce the font size for the Product Titles?

Again thanks so much for all the help you have given me. It really means a lot to me, and if I've been a pest; Sorry!

You need to go into the product layout templates you are using. The default name for these is 'Act_ProductLine.html' but you may have more than one.

Locate the code that reads:

<span class="actregular"><b>NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTNAME</b></span>

Change it to something like:

<span class="actxsmall"><b>NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTNAME</b></span>
