Re: Atlantis icon gets out of focus on larger settings

If I set it to 125 or 150 the Atlantis icon on the desktop becomes blurry and ragged looking. The recent versions of Atlantis include high-res icons. They do not look blurry on the Windows 7 Desktop under "125%" or "150%". Don't know about that because I download and installed the new version of ...

I'm using Windows 7 currently. And I also used Windows 8.1. Windows 10 will get used very infrequently.

A fix would be welcome. To assume that most people will always use Microsoft's latest operating system is not the correct way to proceed here.

Atlantis icon gets out of focus on larger settings

I've noticed that if I go into Control Panel and go into the Display part and where it says make items larger I cannot adjust it to anything beyond the default which is 100 percent. If I set it to 125 or 150 the Atlantis icon on the desktop becomes blurry and ragged looking. No other program icon on ...

Please build in to the software a check box for Updates.

What I've noticed that Atlantis does is after the program has been on your computer for awhile when you close out of it you will see a dialog box come up that asks you if you want to update the program. This I don't like because when I load my computer with a fresh install of Windows I get ...

But I just changed my scaling factor from 125 back down to 100 and now it looks the way it should.

Why can't a guy have a larger scaling factor and still retain sharpness?

The Desktop Icon looks ragged

The desktop icon of Atlantis doesn't look as sharp and good as any of my other desktop icons.

Looks rather ragged and blurry.

I've deleted it and resent it to the Desktop. I've even downloaded and installed the new version of the program. It still looks rather scrappy.

I just printed a few lines using blue with an XPS driver. No difference really. The printed color isn't as bold as it looks in Atlantis.

The way it goes I guess.

My printer is a Canon. MX882. I'm currently using what is called MP drivers. I just tried installing the XPS driver on Windows 8.1 and the dialog box told me I have to have the MP drivers installed first. Why I don't get. Why you need an MP driver if XPS is made to give you better printing in the ...

I wonder if this is the reason my colors don't look as bold

I've noticed that when I am looking at my document on screen as I compose it the colored fonts look great. But when I print the colors look a little more pale. They don't look as deep and saturated as they look on screen. Now I find out about this thing called XPS driver. I don't think I've ever ...

Suggestion for the Show tips at startup box

When I reload my system after installing Atlantis I have to open the program about 5 or 6 times before that Show tips at startup box shows so I can prevent it from showing again.

Shouldn't have to open the software this many times to dismiss this box.

I would like to be able to set this Font as default

I wish that you could set a default Font and Size and Atlantis would remember it so when you closed and opened the program up again your favorite font would automatically be there.

I almost always use Times New Roman 12pt.

A suggestion.

I don't know what spacing before or spacing after means. Spacing before what? After what?

But what worked is I CHECKED the box. Not unchecking.

And that solved the spacing discrepancy.

Another example of the queer behavior of software

If you look at my attachment you can see that the spacing between the entries is not the same. The spacing between Century Link and Shred Academy is more. I made this document in Atlantis. I have tried selecting everything and changing between double-spacing and single-spacing etc. I have hit ...

I'll try the Administrators suggestions the next time I need to highlight some text in a different color.

Thanks for helping and you too Robert, but right now I'm too out of it to answer all of your questions.

I'll get this straightened out.

I have used both options Black and Auto. It seems I have to keep monkeying around with the thing to get the blue to shut off.

Maybe I am not doing the right thing.

If I recall I think I also have tried shutting off the blue immediately after typing the last letter in blue at the end of the line.

Nice software but please fix the Color bug

Every time I switch to a different font color to accent something (like blue) Atlantis wants to keep blue on all the damn time. It doesn't want to switch back to normal black. And I click on the button and I choose black but when I start typing the font color is still on blue. This has been ...

Atlantis removes my delivery address when I print envelopes

I've been using Atlantis for printing envelopes lately and after I get done printing some the program automatically deletes my information in the delivery address box. It should not be doing this. I can see this happening if I completely close the program but I'm not doing that. All I did was print ...

Looks like my folders are located in the correct spot. I do save my documents to a different folder though on my external drive.
