I rigged up a laptop this morning and took it out to the local track where one of our client trainers was working horses.  We compared him using the system with large icons for one horse and huge toolbar icons for another. The difference was amazing.  This guy is 68 years old and has hands the size of pork legs.  It took him about half the time, using the mousepad, to hit the correct tool button with huge as compared to large.

So thanks for that quick response.

A couple of things emerged though.  I haven't thought them through yet ( this getting up at 3:30am has got fur on it and I am going to have a little lie down for a few hours to recover lost beauty sleep) but quickly:
* is there a way to change the cursor/pointer size when the mouse is over a toolbar?
* there appears to be some oddities that occur with vertical toolbars. (I'll get back with more info on this one later)

best regards
Bruce
