Building blocks preview text size too small

Hello,

is there any way to change the size of the preview text when choosing between building blocks to insert. As it is now, it is not very easy to distinguish between similiar text options. In my case I use them in building block content Controls.

Thanks,
Peeter

Thank you for your reply,

but as I can find out it doesn't help me out :-). I use the inline text building block content Control to choose between different text blocks.

I know of no way to change the preview size other than a general change to screen resolution, perhaps. (I believe this would change it, but haven't tried.)

The best method I can think of is to use descriptive names for the building blocks as well as use the available categories.

Greg does mention the size of the previews in his article at http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/word_tip_pages/building_blocks_autotext.html. I have to admit that I haven't tested if he actually addresses that particular issue in the add-in.

Hi,

well, it seems that, so far, there is no way of enlarging the text the way I would prefer. Descriptive names is a good thing which I use.
