Font Size in Alarm Help

We are finding that the font size of the "Alarm Help" popup is much smaller than the other fonts we're using on the operator interface. Does anyone know if there's a way top increase the font size? It may help people utilize it more.

  Hello John,
  The only way I know how would be: 1 - open up DeltaV Operate in 'Configure Mode', 2 - Go to the 'Help' folder and open 'Albanhlp.grf', 3 - Go to each Text object and increase the size of the font.
  You may have to move some things around to show the larger fonts correctly with all the other content.
  Regards,
  Brian

  I agree Brian. I have updated the form myself a few times in the past.
  
  John,
  Make sure you remember to save a copy of it before you make the changes. That way if you have any problems you can revert back to the original.
  Kind regards
  Scott

  Hi,
  
  I think he wants to change the font size on "Alarm Help" popup, & not the "Alarm banner help" popup.
  This help popup comes from an AlarmHelp.exe file in DeltaV/bin folder. As per my knowledge, there is no known way to change font on this application.
  
  Best Regards,
  Amod.
