Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Is there a way to zoom (increase size) of primavera (other than change computer default font).  Like to be able to hit cntl + and have it work or whatever the common commands are?  There is a +/- but that only effects the timescale.

I am on 19.12, Zoltan, and P3 format has gone. Not sure when! I still have a working version of Suretrak. Amazing software for the time. Still very impressive twenty (?) years after development stopped

Not any more. You used to be able to export a P6 file in a format that P3/Suretrak would read. You could then open the file in Primavera Suretrak from 1990, and just do CTRL+ or - to zoom the layout in or out. Worked perfectly
