noticed this bug, or rather, reduced functionality too. bigger fonts are always better

You could open a bug report at:
http://bugs.maemo.org

But they will probably just tell you to start a brainstorm:

So https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7342 is fixed in PR1.1?

So the people in this forum thread scream "Oh no, they have removed another feature", while the people in that bug report scream "Hell yeah, they have finally fixed it"?

Enjoy the fight.

Andre,
i would not call it a fix..the bug was that after zooming there should be text wrapping to include all the msg in a single view but what they do is do away with the zoom feature...can you tell me what high purpose does a volume key serve in an IM view...nothing...a zoom was definately more useful any day...terrible..this is like what they do in a government job in my country...if you cant completely fix it, remove it!!

Here's my experience with this bug:

My friend's boyfriend has an N900. She was thinking of getting one but said there was no way she could use it since the Conversations app's font is way too small. I then found that you could increase the font size with the volume rocker and let her know. She noted that the text wouldn't reflow when enlarged so I got in on the bug ticket.

Now I can tell her that not only doesn't it reflow anymore, the ability to zoom has been *completely* removed. So there's zero percent (0%) chance she can use a N900 now.

I'm glad this is fixed.

This was a bug and distorted the text, while zooming is great but not allowing you to see the full text making it useless.

Incorrect. You could see the text, you just had to scroll over.

Anyway, in sum, for people that don't have great eyesight Maemo 5 is unusable in it's current state.
