I've got pretty bad eyesight, so I got an XDA2s in order to make PDA and phone usage easier. I copy text messages to Word and increase font size. How can I make the icons and general font bigger like in Windows Desktop versions (Resolution, icon size & windows font)???
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Martand
PS, I set the font to large from the default medium but most of the standard writing on the screen remains small.

You need to be running WM2003SE to get the font size option, this is not available on non SE versions.

TROUBLE WITH SMS FONT SIZE
Do wm2003se rom really has facility/menu to change the font size of sms comming..? The big problem of me is strugling with my eyes every recieve sms coz of too small font size. My eyes get sick..!. I have tried tweaks2ks software but the software just can enlarge the font of sms that still inbox. After tapped/opened the font go back to small again. Visual lT zoom can help..but not really...
I hope WM2003 SE can solve the problem...!!
thanx..for all
Hi..
some of my contacts are very long. so, in phone i see some of name.
is there a way to change the size of font, to make it smaller?.
thanks in advance...
It might already be set to the smallest size.
Start, Settings, System, Screen on the bottom is a Tab for Text Size
but the phone font did not change...
everything can be fixed
it will be my pleasure to help u...
Almatrodi,
He only thing you can do since it maybe the smallest font is to change the setting on your contact list. Better for you to open up Contacts, go to Tools and then Options. After this, put a check mark on view names only. I had the same problem with Arab Names because they are so long and so many. This is the only way I got through it.
Mvmajorem..
thank you for that..
But i am not talking about showing the contacts. i have Pocket Informat instead.
the problem is in phone window. i want to change the font size of it.
Hi all,
The Manila interface is great, I like it very much but I have a small problem; the font size is too small and thin which makes it hard to read messages in SMS tab especially under sun light or day light, bright conditions.
Is there a way to change the font size or perhaps make the font italic, underlined or bold option for SMS tab?
Thanks in advance.
Try:
Settings -> System -> Screen -> Text size
That only changes the text size in native Windows Mobile dialogs; like sms inbox etc. not in Manila interface. So I am still trying a solution.

aegeuss,
just wondering if you ever figured out how to change the font size per your request? I'm still looking for the answer.

i have seen a mod in which ther's a button to increase or decrease font size in message tab..
i haven't found it in the net anyway...
No unfortunately not; there are two similar threads as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=539091 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471604 but the method in these threads change the system fonts completely. There's not an easy way to play with the manila interface fonts (size, color etc.) as afar as I know.
It's good one way that the new manila interface develops with each version but it reduces chances to tweak it for power users. May be that's the way HTC wants it, who knows.
Regards.
thanks for that info.
Personally, i think that it sucks that so much work has gone into making such a nice interface (i.e. the manilla interface) and yet no provisions were make to allow for the (seemingly simple) capability to alter the system font size. I understand that changing the font-face might not be so easy (who knows what fonts each of us might have installed) but the font size... really?

p.s. sorry for ranting.

I can re set the value for hvga
Enjoy!
Plz feedback
Edit: 2nd cab is with any bug correction
Hello ppl,
I used it, it works really nice. 3kb cab file... so simple..
.. here are some pics as looks on my system.
I used a dull gray backgound for pictures..
You can drag and drop the elements in the position you want in order to set up order.. that works pretty fine.
Now, question is, any possibility to have bigger characters on the screen ? as this looks too small.. or at least to have them in one line only ? not white / yellow thing as on the screen ? only white and bigger - similar to windows default theme ? maybe more spaced.. but definitely larger characters.
Brgds,
Radu

Yes it's possible, the white or the yellow?
v2.. biggest fonts
hi,
if you ask me, i would like to have white letters only.
similar size, a little smaller than theme.
ideea would be to look consistent with theme default.
maybe...the "loupe" effect is it possible?

radu

What's the "loupe" effect?
This a simple css not a app. The fonts it's the original windows.
Just the white font it's possible. In same place but little smaller?
Hello again Mike,
Here are two pictures of actual look and what i think would look better.
Is about taking out the yellow writing all together, it does not make sense to have same thing written twice, it looks cluttered.
Unless, let's say, if there is a folder which has more than one icon inside it, like for example the Tools or Settings folder. There will have to have the big white letter for title and in yellow letters, below, the content of the folder.
Size of the yellow letter seems fine for me.
As for the white letter, maybe one single size increase, like from Tahoma12 to Tahoma 13 ( and/or bolded ) so that would look closer to original windows default theme. But, not too much as it looks now, "Microsoft My Phone" is very long and would go out of the screen on the right side..
My ideea would be to have same aspect once navigating in between main theme and control panel.
"Loupe" effect, is the highlight ( or magnify lens ) that is placed on the active icon, like the effect for the clock tab, in the main theme. Or can you replace this with a underline for the title... i do not know if this is even possible..
regards,
Radu
PS: i would be really happy if i knew to tinker code here, not to bother you..
LE : started reading the post in original thread, maybe the yellow text can remain but made smaller to resemble tooltip description... small text that you really need to look closer to understand the meaning of the title if not displayed correctly...Somehow to differentiate title from description and create impression of separate "paragraphs", if that is right term.

WOW lol
Sorry your post is complexe for me, my english is not better for understand you lol
For the code, no prob use the 2 files in attachement. For edit use notepad++ and replace the original in windows folder and softreset.
Tahoma 13 is the font of titanium? it's not a probleme for replace the font in start menu.
Thank you man, that's what i want, also i see this become a very useful post.... nice!!
Hello Mike,
Maybe i'm too dumb for this...
Can't edit file in pda... is opened already ??
Nor can copy/paste - have no rights...
Can you manage to make the package once again, but without yellow characters, at all ?
Regards,
Radu
