There's an add-on to do this in FF but I don't see anything in TB.

Left panel, Menu bar and Calendar appear to take their font size from Win 7.

I have control over the msg font but not the general screen.

Alternatively you can make changes using the userChrome.css file.

Ah, thank you, works great - now I can read everything without having to CTRL/+, -

The first webpage only showed instructions for FF. It did seem to reset my message text size but I simply went in to Options and increased that. AND he Calendar fits my screen properly!
