Does anybody know, if it's possible to have more than one visible row of text when answering an sms in the conversation app in WM 6.1? I find it very annoying, not to see the text completey that i've written.
the only thing I found is to make text size smaller (Start-settings-screen-text size) You get 2 lines and avery line has lot more text, so I think it's enough, I don't feel any problem when messaging (I have text size set to the 2nd level). I think it's much more readable than bigger text that make confusion. But it's an opinion
Whilst in the text\email message drag your finger along the side of the middle button. You will see some markings on the button with arrows going round in a circle. You can use this to make your txt bigger\smaller.
Hope this helps
Thanks, smaller text size did it
Fortunately the diamond has the VGA display so it stays readable...

Is it just me or is the text size in the threaded sms huge? Is there a way to change it?

to bad the wheel does not work for scrolling through the sms message on your tf3d screen. ik get long sms texts and i always have to open the threaded sms to read the message.
how small can you make the fonts?
I mean across everything? I like making the best use of screen relestate and with a VGA screen you should be able to use small fonts (enough pixels), but maybe hold the phone closer to read them
how can I lower the font size in the menus?
start > settings > system > screen.
please read your manual =.=

When you go into the sms thread mode ( by pressing the SMS screen ) you can then use your finger to touch and scroll clockwise ( enlarge the sms text ) or anti-clockwise ( reduce the sms text ). The same method can also apply for enlarge or reduce the photo size under the album view mode.
It's very responsive, not necessary to change the text size on screen setting.
i meant in the tf3d screen. you cannot read the complete message text there.
offcourse you can do it elsewhere
Yes, on the tf3d screen. Please - someone must have a solution for this.. A registry entry?
*bump*
how do you change the font size in tf3d for text messages?
The wonder of repetition
Hmm... Should be interesting to see how many more ways we can ask the same exact question...

It is not possible at the moment!
When in the standard WM texting screen, the recieved text is huge!
It USED to be tiny after I posted a message about this before and someone told me to go into Settings > Screen and make the text size small.
My text for the current message I'm typing remains small, but for some unknown reason, the received text has jumped up a couple of sizes.
Another suggestion was to click on the keboard settings and choose 'Other Input Methods' > Options > Options > and change both zoom levels to 75%, but this does nothing either.
How can I get my received text back to the minimum size?!?!?!
I think this phone is brilliant, but all these silly niggles are really getting me down. The other problem I've just started having is that on every web page I open, the keyboard pops up. When I close it, it pops up again - and does this a couple of times.... eventually staying closed. REALLY annoying!! Surely it should only pop up if I click on a text box?

Use the zoomwheel located around the dpad. you can increase/decrease font size of conversation this way
BTW, the wheel also works in Mail and in the Office applications, so if you touch it by mistake you can inadvertently change the text size.
Perfect...
Exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks guys...
Thanks! I was wondering why it seemed to randomly change size!
silly question but where is the zoomwheel?

It's the round circle on the botton of the key/touchpad which you just have to touch with your finger and swiffle it around clockwise for bigger text and counter-clockwise for smaller text!
Good luck!

My exact thoughts when i first got the diamond, i thought it had loads of bugs til i figured them all out.
This is probably a WM6.1 question more than a Diamond question, but because I'm using JUICY'S 2.2 ROM, I figured I'd ask here.
I am a person with a visual impairment - I can't see all that well. I've used Windows Mobile devices for a few years but would be very interested in making the text much large on many screens within Windows Mobile. I've been able to do this through the Registry, making the font size larger for menues, pop-ups and title bars. What I can't seem to figure out is how to make the text large in "Text Messaging." In Juicy's ROM, threaded text messaging is used (which I love) but I can't seem to find the registry key to edit the font size of the text that is received. The perfect font size for me in this case would be 14 point font.
Start / Settings / Screen / Text Size - this doesn't increase the font large enough for me.
Please help if you could with this issue. It would be much appreciated.
I was able to edit the font size of the text that I type into "Text Messaging" but still not the actual conversation text size. Please help! Thanks.
Try turning the touch sensitive scroll wheel to the right.

Thanks for the tip - that does make the text a "bit" larger which helps, so thank you. Still would be interested in a registry hack for it though...
is there any cabs so that when your texting you can see more than 1 line of written text ? i find it impossible to write long texts as you can only see last couple of words and its daft . anyone ideas? please thankyou
hmmm, any pics of what you mean?
havent really got any pics but just sort of like a normal phone whereas you can read pretty much all of what your typing on the same screen instead of getting to word 4 and finding word 1 has vanished of the screen .
He means when you're using the HTC on screen keyboard which is so big it takes up like 90% of the screen leaving very little of your message visible when writing a new SMS. I don't use that keyboard myself but I do remember it from when I first got the phone and tried it out; it would be good if the font size on the 'compose new SMS' screen could be made smaller to help people who do use that keyboard.
One of the tweaks packages allows you to change editor from threaded to classic - maybe not ideal but a workaround!
I changed the height of the SMS reply part of the screen and I changed the Windows Mobile font size in the Settings - System - Screen - Text size tab. And while reading your sms (thread), you can also adjust the conversation font size with your 'scroll wheel'.
User Letter Recognizer
I use the Letter Recognizer method, instead of querty keyboard or the T9 keyboard input methods.
it's much easier to write messages and the screen occupied by the Letter Recognier itself is very little, hence more text lines visible. Just perfect.
It might take some time to get used to the Letter Recognizer. But you'll really like it once you get a hang of it.
I was obviously pressing buttons when the phone was in my pocket and I can't rectify this text issue. When I go into the texting screen to write a message the text size in the writing part of the screen is small but when I send the text message or receive messages the text size is huge. Does anyone know how to fix this? The settings are for the text to be small so I dont know whats happened!!! Any help appreciated.

The big round button on the diamond, the outside part of it works as a zooming control on sum programs, go into a message and run ur finger either clockwise or anti clockwise round the outside of the big round button to zoom in n out
brilliant thank you kindly lol, didnt even realise that I need to rtfm
