Customize the Title Bar and Other System Fonts in Windows 7

Would you like to tweak your title bar and menu fonts in Windows 7?

Here’s how you could change those little options you may have enjoyed tweaking in older versions of Windows.

Sometimes it can be nice to really make your rig fully personalized.

These features are actually still in Windows 7, albeit slightly more hidden.

Here’s how to change them.

Right-punch your desktop, and select Personalize as you would to change your Aero theme.

In the Personalization pane, click Window Color under the theme lists.

Under the color options, smack the Advanced appearance prefs link.

In the preview box at the top, hit the element you wish to tweak.

Now pick the font, size, color, and more for the area you selected.

You’ll immediately see the preview in the top box.

Once you’re done, click Ok to apply the controls.

Your screen will dim momentarily as Windows applies the theme changes.

Moments later, you’ll see your new font style on your window borders.

Alternately, if you choose a smaller font or font size, your window buttons will shrink.

Feel free to play with it until it looks perfect to you!

Here notice that we have Segoe Script in the file menu, along with our customized window border font.
