I am kinda glad that they removed it but bummed out at the same time.. why? because, it's nice to zoom in if you dont want to to stare at the screen with small fonts (I never hd this problem but it's a nice option)... Anywyas using the volume keys was a pain because what if you have music and you to icrease/decrease volume.. IMO they should include the swirl zoom thing in there too.. this way it would make everyone happy... Or simply an option to turn the zoom (using volme keys) on or off...

why not just have an option inside conversations or even a global textsize option in settings
Then i could set it to a bit smaller font and then conversations and modest (email) would use that setting and show me more lines

i always wondered why the N900 show way less in the screen then my E90 did on its outer screen! when vieuwing emails

to give you an example of the font size i like to have in conversations and the email client.

this forum in classic style i can see in a none full screenmode 8 topics at the same time and those 8 topics have then a subject line and a line below what could be used in modest as the first line of the email. besides that i also have plenty space on the right for sender info and so on.

so the browser shows me in a default zoom perfect info in exactly the size i want. would love to have that in the other places

I tried, was not able to scroll over hence why I considered it as a bug.

It's funny because I think the fonts are too big in general on N900, and especially in the conversations. I want to use the small font in the preview on the conversations main screen in the actual conversation itself. (In xterm I use Droid Sans Mono at 8 point :))

I wonder if the Conversations font size is hard-coded in the application or if it is inherited from somewhere else (for example maybe it can be changed in the active Theme or something?)

Have a look: Customize N900 Conversations

I bet, you can also change the font size. :)

Yup, i just added "font-size: 8pt;" into the section "div.Message" in MessagingWidgetsChatConversation.css and it works like a charm.

Obviously you would have to do the same with MessagingWidgetsSingleSMS.css and MessagingWidgetsSMSConversation.css if you want to change those too.

Of course remember this is a hack, it wont hurt anything but it may be wiped or not work correctly in a future firmware update. I'm now even more in love with my N900 knowing I can tweak these sorts of things as CSS and HTML are the things I spend hours tweaking as it is.

Actually I added 8px not 8pt, now if I can only get a magnifying glass I might be able to read it. :p

Anyway, made mine nice and minimal now 14px (pt doesn't seem to work after all).
