Try changing font size in Functions Cfg's under Fonts
I ve been using mach3 for a few year without any problem except for this.
I cant remember the right name for what I will call the gcode screen, my problem is the letters seem too large ,so the bottom part of the letters are cut off on the display and make a Z look like a 7... making everything kinda hard to read , especially for a novice trying to decipher gcode.
Any help will be appreciate.
Try changing font size in Functions Cfg's under Fonts
The Font size can't actually be changed. The Font control is only for changing the Font itself.
Is every line cut off, or just the bottom line? Have you changed the Font from the default?
One thing you can try is changing the font size in the Windows display settings. Right click on the Desktop, choose Properties, and poke around until you find a Font setting.

Hi ger21,
yes every line in the gcode display are cutoff at the bottom.
This does not look to be a windows problem as the dro and the other displays are ok.
Now Im confuse , if you select Font, under the Function cfg s, a window named
Select the font for various controls appears, with 4 buttons named
DRO------- 18pt arial
Label------ 18pt arial
Code------ 18pt arial
Buttons---- 18pt arial
by clicking these a font window appear with selection of font type , style, and size.
I do the change in size and click ok but I dont see any change.
I did not change anything it was like that when I first installed Mach 3.But what default are you refering to?
None of those settings will change except the Font itself, and only after you restart mach3. Did you change the font? I'd try a different font.Now Im confuse , if you select Font, under the Function cfg s, a window named

After trying many other fonts without success I found that the font named Courrier does the trick.
After taking a better look at the other display, I see that they are all cut off on the bottom , just dont look as bad in numbers than letters.
Thanks , was really tired of seeing FILE displayed as FII F
