I have always used the commands for font size increase/decrease as a quick and easy way to adjust text by a single font size at a time. Since I installed X6 it does not work anymore. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a simple fix?

While this is not corrected by Service Pack, there is a work around:

Edit: Click and drag for highlighting. (It works!)

This option doesn't work correctly on X6, it must be corrected on the first ServicePack

Yes, the problem is only with the Pick tool, if you select with the Text Tool it works fine

Ariel,

Here, I can´t increase/decrease only selecting text with F8 (text tool). Click & drag is needed (for highlighting), or it does not work.

Once done, I can even use my personal shortcuts (Alt+1 to increase // Alt+2 to decrease font size).

Even though it works in text tool mode, there's one thing you should know:

If you use macros and VBA has been activated, Ctrl+NumPad 6 doesn't work correctly.
Just thought I'd let you know.
