thank you,
it seems the third method is simple,but i can not open the file "metaeditor.xml',may you send me a modify one so i can replace original one .
Two of methods to open the file "metaeditor.xml":
First:
1. find "NOTEPAD.EXE" in folder "c:\windows" and run it;
2. press <Ctrl-O> combination to invoke dialog box "Open file ...";
3. set "type of file" to "all";
4. go to the folder "C:\Program Files\MetaTrader 4\languages";
5. find the file "metaeditor.xml" and open it.
Second:
1. Rename "metaeditor.xml" to "metaeditor.txt";
2. select this file;
3. press <Enter>;
4. do not forget to rename "metaeditor.txt" to "metaeditor.xml" after editing.

"line 2 margin: 3px; padding: 3px; background-color:#fbfbfc; color:#626363; font-size:0.8em; }"
0.8 -> 1.8
?
And what about <Ctrl>+Scroll Wheel ?
thank you i chang it from 0.8to 10.8 no change .
i try <ctrl>+scroll wheel,no change .
The reasons may be:
1. you are using another language than English;
2. you have installed more than one MetaTrader4.
Please try to do following:
1. change the language of MetaEditor to English in menu "View/Languages/English";
2. close MetaEditor;
3. open "metaeditor.xml" and check that line number 10 contains following
"body { margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px; padding-left: 3px; padding-right: 3px; margin: 3px; padding: 3px; background-color:#fbfbfc; color:#626363; font-size:1.8em; }"
4. run MetaEditor;
5. check changes;
6. with the wheel try to do following:
6.1. place arrow of "mouse" to the center of the help window,
6.2. press <Ctrl> key of the keyboard and hold it pressing,
6.3. try to turn scrolling wheel of "mouse" in both methods - pressing and not to pressing this scrolling wheel, simultaneously holding pressing <Ctrl> key of the keyboard.
