I have searched the forum but haven't found an answer yet. Is there a way to change the font used in the message tab of TF3D/Manila ? Some cooked roms I try have kind of a bold font and readable letters while most of the roms have very small and thin letters for the textmessages you read in the message tab, as soon as you switch to a windows view or the threaded view it is okay but when you click on the tab the messages have very thin letters.. There must be an easy way to change that ?

If you want to increase the font size in the message tab of Manila, then try this file. Just place it to windows folder. Please make backup first.

I like using black for my window background, but as a result I can't view text in inbox messages since outlook defaults to a black font.
Is there any way to change the font color of received messages? Thanks
you can use SmilySMS.. it would box your sms and you would be able to read it.
you can also change font colors using RC_Mod

Thanks a lot for those suggestions! Just searching for those apps brings up some interesting Outlook plugins. I'll give them a shot now.
I found out how, in my version the default mail font settings were coming from windows/iframe_style.css (and not the ReadBody entry from read_style.css, which works for sms)
Under "Body {...", adding the line "color: XXX" fixed it
Thanks all

This does work for received emails, but does anyone know how to change for SENT emails as well?
Unable to change pocket outlook inbox font
I am running Win Mobile 6.5 and for the life of me I have been unable to locate the keys in the registry allowing me to change the large font that is so annoying when looking at the list of new emails that arrived. All registry suggestions I found seem not to apply to 6.5. Any help is very much appreciated! TIA

i have an htc diamond 2 , only problem is on sms massages , text is too small and difficult to read, any ideas on how to make text letters on sms bigger???
thanks
Hi!
1) Slide touchflo to the settings tab (the last one)
2) Press the left soft button that should say something like all settings (or maybe "more", I don't have a WWE ROM so I really don't know what the button label is). This will bring up the regular windows mobile settings dialog.
3) Select the screen or display icon
4) In the screen dialog select the last tab at the bottom, I should say something like text size
5) Slide the text size slider to desired value
6) You may have to soft reset the device for the changes to be effective

PK
Edited the thread title for a little more clarity.
Also, have you tried sliding your finger on the zoom bar? I know the original Diamond supports zooming SMS text with the capacitive area.

thank you very much for your advice, i have try all but unfortunately nothinkg works, on received sms text still too small, any ideas ? or any program that might fix this?
Thanks
Hi!
Could you please provide some more information regarding how you actually reads your messages. There are at least 3 different places to read a SMS
1) The touchflo SMS tab
2) The touchflo contact SMS tab
3) The regular windows mobile messages application
The suggested solutions mentioned so far only changes the font size in the regular windows mobile messages application (alternative 3). I think the font size in the touchflo interface is hard coded by HTC, and is not changeable without decompiling the touchflo script files and changes the values. This is not something you wants to do, I guess there are only a couple of people in this entire forum capable of performing that task.

ok , nice question , now we getting somewhere , on regular windows sms i can read the text size which i have selected on my system - screen -text size, but needs for someone to play around with a couple of buttons to be able to see that text, also is not that user friendly , (for me at least).
now on the other two cases touchflo sms tabs and touchflo contact sms the text is very small. the last two cases i find it friendly and easy to use and navigate around your sms history with that person.
Thanks a lot.
Regarding SMS editing
DO you know how to solve the problem of the textbox size (to small, you can see only one or 2 lines) when editing an sms from the sms list view ? (e.g. when you want to reply on the same windows where you read the received sms).
Thanks
On WM6.1
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\RichEditHostFontFace
That's only the text box that you type in, not the window that displays the messages. If anyone know the messages one, let me know
In settings there is a setting where you change the text size. Make that bigger and SMS will be bigger..
Lokking for some new manila tweaks:
1.is it possible to change the shortcuts in Manila 2.5/2.5/Sense to 4 columns?
They're too big anyway and icons look bad this big...
2.there is no missed calls indicator in new manila, only in taskbar, is it possible to add bubble for missed calls in home tab icon like in new SMS or new EMAIL?
3.could not change date format, i edit 2c89bd29_manila but it does not shown correctly (shows IDS_??????)... how can i set date format to 31.12.2009?
10x.
Hi,
I tried to edit the file you wrote here (2c89bd29_manila) and it works correctly. I have edited the IDS_DATEFORMAT and have also found there the IDS_DATEFORMAT_SMALLVIEW value, which I have also edited and it also works...
Perhaps you have specified an incorrect formatting symbols and the parser doesn't understand it and therefore it displays that... Try d.MM.yyyy
I have manila version 2.5.19193431.0

Any news on the missing missed call thingy ? Would be very cool if we could have this back in 2.5. I saw some german guys talking about replacing the text "agenda" (under the date / alarm buttons) by missed calls. Could make much of the german though. would be nice, who needs the "agenda" text anyway..
It has been discussed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=553307
In fact, you can show the call history and you can also change the softkey of M2.5 by using this tool.

I am having the same issue and have been unable to find any info.
Several people have suggested advanced config, which has several font settings, but they do not seem to have any effect, at least on my device.
You may want to give it a try on yours.
Go to settings > system settings > screen and there is an option to change font size, see if that works for you. I didn't for me, but who knows

I've still not found a way to adjust fonts with TouchFlo, but at least for popup menus, you can disable TouchFlo, and then the device will go back to using Windows fonts, which can be adjusted using Advanced Config or other tool.
You can use TD2 Tools, go to the TouchFLO tab, and uncheck Enable TouchFlo Popup Menus.
Hi everyone!
I have just installed the tweak from the cab repository that allows your home tab background to be visible in all of the tabs... which I totally love!
The only problem is, if you choose a bright(ish) background, its very difficult to read a text message on the messages tab.
I was wondering, does anyone know of a way to add say, a PNG, that has a gradient/transparency fade behind the message text on the messages tab, as though it was a curtain kind of thing.
This would allow the background to show through, yet still allowing a message to be read!
Thanks for you help in advance. I'm pretty new to this all so I have not a clue about where to begin!
sat
that's a good idea, since i face the same problem
Or add an A4 paper behind the message, like in the email tab. That woul be really nice
if someone could make a mod that lets you add a gradient curtain thingy and wrap it up in a cab, I'm sure people will be willing to donate a few £s... I definitely would be.
transparent background on messaging tab makes sms, etc. unreadable
I have been working on this one for weeks now, I've been able to change a whole lot in manila except for this freakin' unreadable white text in the messaging tab, when you've got the transparent backgrounds enabled. Indeed it would be very nice to have like a curtain thing on this tab to properly show your messages
Issue is driving me
If there's someone that is able to do this or even help me along the way,
it would keep me from a mental breakdown (sleepless nights are killin'ya)
