I am considering using money dance because my "updated" version of quicken has a bug causing a font problem. I can barely read text and there doesn't seem to be a workaround that I can grasp and quicken doesn't support their product anymore. So.....how compatible is money dance with Windows 10?

   Fully, it is cross platform.

   Hi Candida,
   I am running MD on Win 10, it actually works very well.
   The only problem that I have is that MD has been improved with a minimalistic view, which, to me, leaves it looking very grey and washed out, quite difficult to read.
   This is how it also worked on my old Win 7 PC.

   I am not support staff, just a use

   In 2017 you can change the font size under FILE – PREFERENCES – FONT SIZE the larger the + value the larger the font.

   In the same window you can change the THEME to a number of predefined themes. When you find the one you like best you can click on customize to make further changes. See http://help.infinitekind.com/kb/customizing-and-preferences/theme
   This feature is badly documented which is a pity as you can change almost everything. If you want you can use denser colours than are used as standard so images look less grey. If you do want to spend time exploring what is a great feature I would advise you to take copies of the file custom_theme.properties in to .moneydance folder so if something does not turn out as expected you can go back a step. Copy or reinstate an older file with Moneydance shut down.
   You may have to restart the program for all the changes to take effect.

   Hope this helps
