Help with Nikon View NX1 and View NX2: I downloaded both programs hoping to use them for post processing. Since the download and using Windows 10 I notice all features are sooo small...

JimBart Loc: Western Michigan

I downloaded both programs hoping to use them for post processing. Since the download and using Windows 10 I notice all features are sooo small that a magnifying glass is needed just to see where you are at. Any ideas on how to get larger icons, file locationsand edit features on each program. Basically how do you make all features larger
Also..... yes I am an older senior and do have some vision problems
Thanks for the help

For post processing I think you would be better off downloading Nikon Capture NX-d

In capture NX-d you can change the size of the icons by going to:

Windows>Customize Toolbar ... select small, medium, or large.

Agreed. After using NX-2 for awhile, I downloaded NX-D, which is much more up to date. My activation code for NX-2 also worked for NX-D.

The above advice is good, and Bill De May have answered your question.

If not, I seem to recall from my Windows days that you can change the Windows screen settings to make the features larger.

Maybe a Windows user will be able to give you more details.

What type of screen are you using? Is this a problem with all programs or only the recently installed NXs?

Here is a comparison of ViewNX-i and Capture NX-D, which are the latest versions in their respective categories:

Although I use other editing software, I frequently use ViewNX-i for browsing, quick review, culling and converting to TIFF/JPG.

Anyone know if NX-D be downloaded on an iPad? iMac ?

These latest versions of the Nikon software are the biggest reasons I switched to Adobe three years ago. IMHO, they don't do anything well and they are slow and clunky. Best of luck.

No. NX-D does not run under iOS.

I am sorry but that is wrong. Nikon NX-D does not run on iPads or phones. iPads and phones run iOS software. Mac computers run MacOS software, also perviously know as OSX. Nikon does not provide a download link for IOS, only MacOS.

OP asked a 2 part question. Won't NX-d run on an iMac?

Oh, yes he did. I stand (sit) corrected. Thank you.

It will run on an iMac but not an iPad.
