The Smart Client resolution on the screen can make the text very hard to read.
Starting with v2024.01 of Smart Client, you can change the font size by editing the user.config file.
Example: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\ARCHIBUS\SmartClient\2024.4\user.config
If you have a Smart Client version prior to 2024.01, do this:
There is a Windows 10 setting that should increase the text size so it is more readable. To access the setting follow these steps. Be sure that the Smart Client is closed.
Go to the Windows Start button and select All
Scroll through the applications until you get to Archbus 25. Open it and find the ARCHIBUS Smart Client. Then right click on it.
