Font not displaying properly when changing fonts - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I don't know what's the problem or the solution but when I change fonts with fontchanger, sometimes the font will display squares when the text goes to the "....." when it's too long to fit a word in the space allocated.
You know what I mean? Like say a text box only has space for "automo" in automobile.
Then it displays
automo....[]
any fix to this? Seems like almost all fonts do this.

Hot to change font size?.

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.

Text color

I ran into this "problem". I changed my background to a picture and used the bg 4 all utility to have the same background on all manila tabs, but now my backgrounds are also changed in the SMS reading panel 'threaded sms), the contacts screen and maybe some others screens too. Because this text is in black, my changed background makes the text very hard to read and it should be changed to white if possible. Does anyone know if and how you can change the text color?
I searched the forum, but didn't find answers.
same problem
i have also this problem.
i deleted this app.but i love it
help help help
is there anyway to make this problem
Would also like to know if there is any update on this, the other alternative I have posted a thread for is how to have a little more customization over where the background goes, e.g. select to leave default background on contact edit window etc etc.
Hopefully someone can help?

Update on this, found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=479112&highlight=curtain
The stocklite CAB allows what we were after, only the manilla tabs get the background, the ones with the white background remain.
I am running it successfully on Dutty V3
I haven't personally tried the background for ALL tabs and apps yet, but this does sound intriguing. I have spent ages playing around with an APP that changes ALL the text, pop-up, bars, scrollbars, title, background etc etc colours, in an attempt to have a completely black background and crisp white text (ie. like TF3D). However... there are limitations to this, and it is VERY hard to achieve a consistant and fuinctional look (since many colours are shared, and quite often you come across a pop-up or menu items that are the same colour).
But... if the APP you mention underlays a black background image in PocketOutlook without actually changing the preset windows colour... this may actually work.
Here's the freeware to tweak colours (UI Tweaker): -

I'm definitely interested to see if anyone else gets somewhere with this?

You can change your text size if you go to Settings > Screen > "Text Size" tab and adjust the slider. Alternatively, while you have your text message open, you can slide your finger along the zoom slider at the bottom of the LCD screen and it will adjust the size of the text font, real-time. Sliding in one direction makes the text smaller and sliding in the other makes it larger.
Yes i know i can do that. im talking about when i use my slider to go to the text message option. i want to be able to read the text before i tap on it to see it in the other format where i can make the changes. for example, on the tilt two all the text is white before you open up the area to see all messages. i just want to make the white text in the threaded area bigger. if i cant do that. how to i just make the font black or any other color, or bold instead.

I see. Your original message didn't clearly indicate that you were referring to the Manila Messages text font size. From what I can gather, you can't easily modify the Manila text size without changing everything else in the system's font settings. This has been discussed in this thread.
Thanks. I'll check it out

Changing the size of SMS font size

Hey all, I read over the forums a bit, and I saw quite a few threads about changing just the SMS font size, but not changing the rest of the System font sizes. I have figured out a way to do it for the tilt 2 for AT&T.
The font size is not really the issue when it comes to the SMS font. The issue relis on the zoom of the screen. The SMS screen for texting carry a different setting for zoom, and it saves it when you change it. If you want to change the size of the SMS font, simply increase or decrease the zoom of the screen. This will only affect the SMS texting screen, and not the rest of the system.
Hope this helps everyone ^_^.
Font Zoom
Thanks for that tip to increase the font size in my text messages. I don't even know how I reduced them--just, one day, I couldn't even read them without my magnifying glasses. This fixed it right up. I selected a text, scrolled the zoom bar and, BAM! Back to readable.

I have a verizon phone that is unlocked, using with at&t. My zoom bar does not work with sms. Do you have any idea how to get it to work. I am to the point that I need reading glasses to see the small SMS text size and yes I have it set to the largest size in wm6.5.
