Revision as of 18:12, 26 June 2016

Here some are sample font-size and line-height combinations


notes

  • The inter-para spacing is unreachable through the wiki filter, so via F12-inspect, '.mw-body p { margin: 1.0em 0; }' is what I used.
  • use rems when editing
  • don't forget the browser zoom




default - font-size: 0.875em; line-height: 1.6em;


Warning: If you are using a BOINC version lower than 5.8.2, before you add or edit cc_config.xml, exit BOINC. Normally in Boinc Manager File->Exit. If you are running as a service, Start->Run, type net stop boinc and press OK/Enter.

Note: Not all options are available in lower versions of BOINC. Note: When using a World Community Grid version of BOINC, flags may differ. Please ask at the WCG forums if in doubt. I did add the specific flags in this FAQ.

cc_config.xml is mainly used for debugging BOINC. By enabling these flags BOINC writes specific information both to the Messages tab/Event Log, to stderrdae.txt and stdoutdae.txt.

When you are using BOINC 5.8.2 or above, it isn't necessary to stop the BOINC client. Just edit the cc_config.xml file and tell Boinc Manager to read the file, through Advanced, Read config file.

Warning: Any changes in the <log_flags> section will be used immediately. Yet a lot of changes in the <options> section will need a complete exit and restart of the BOINC client. They will not take if you just re-read the config file.

Below is an example of cc_config.xml, split in the <log_flags> and <options> sections. By showing where the <log_flags> and <options> go in each section, you ought to be able to know where goes what when you make your cc_config.xml file. When saving with a text editor, make sure you save as "All types" and in ANSI format. That way the editor won't auto-add a TXT extension and the file will be readable by BOINC.

For BOINC 5.2.1 - 5.10.45: Save the cc_config.xml file into your BOINC directory.

For BOINC 6.1 - all above that: Save the cc_config.xml file into your BOINC Data directory.

This can also be found in the the BOINC Wiki .. Check the site regularly for changes/additions.



font-size: 0.875em; line-height: 1.3em;


Warning: If you are using a BOINC version lower than 5.8.2, before you add or edit cc_config.xml, exit BOINC. Normally in Boinc Manager File->Exit. If you are running as a service, Start->Run, type net stop boinc and press OK/Enter.

When you are using BOINC 5.8.2 or above, it isn't necessary to stop the BOINC client. Just edit the cc_config.xml file and tell Boinc Manager to read the file, through Advanced, Read config file.

When saving with a text editor, make sure you save as "All types" and in ANSI format. That way the editor won't auto-add a TXT extension and the file will be readable by BOINC.

When you are using BOINC 5.8.2 or above, it isn't necessary to stop the BOINC client. Just edit the cc_config.xml file and tell Boinc Manager to read the file, through Advanced, Read config file.

Warning: Any changes in the <log_flags> section will be used immediately. Yet a lot of changes in the <options> section will need a complete exit and restart of the BOINC client. They will not take if you just re-read the config file.

Below is an example of cc_config.xml, split in the <log_flags> and <options> sections. By showing where the <log_flags> and <options> go in each section, you ought to be able to know where goes what when you make your cc_config.xml file. When saving with a text editor, make sure you save as "All types" and in ANSI format. That way the editor won't auto-add a TXT extension and the file will be readable by BOINC.


BOINC Programs directory

The default directory where BOINC will install its executables to is:

  • Windows 32bit: C:\PROGRAM FILES\BOINC

Warning: If you are using a BOINC version lower than 5.8.2, before you add or edit cc_config.xml, exit BOINC. Normally in Boinc Manager File->Exit. If you are running as a service, Start->Run, type net stop boinc and press OK/Enter.

Note: Not all options are available in lower versions of BOINC. Note: When using a World Community Grid version of BOINC, flags may differ. Please ask at the WCG forums if in doubt. I did add the specific flags in this FAQ.
