Default document map font size changes as I change the width - why?

Thanks Suzanne. It does change globally.

Umm. Yes.

But does that make a global change to all other docs?

I am currently using a 'workaround' that at leasts means I can continue
editing my files.

I've set the font size for Document Map to 36 points. At least I can
shrink the pane to about normal width - and continue working with a

readable
map.

Hi Vicky,

It's a bug that has appeared in Word2000/2002 for some users, too.
I thought it was finally fixed :-(

As far as I heard, switching to Outline view and back should fix it...

for
the moment.

I don't think a repair installation or deleting the Data key in the
registry fixes it (at least that's what I remember hearing), but if the
problem keeps annoying you, you might give it a try:
See "Detect and Repair" in Word's help menu, and
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/apperrors/MissngMenusEtc.htm

Klaus

I use the document map in Word 2003. Something has caused the font

of
the
document map to decrease as I decrease the width of the document map

and
increase as I increase the width. Normally the font stays the same

if
the text is too wide, you just can't see all of it. Now the text gets

so
small it isn't readable - as if the text is becoming proportionally
smaller.
The document map has to be about 3/4 of my screen for it to be

readable
at
all.

Any ideas what I did to cause this?
