Hi,
When you are using HTC Sense UI and is "moving" (long-press then drag) an item in the home screen, you will see some kind like "cell" (green rectangle).
Do you know the size of this cell in pixel? for screen size 800x480.
Thanks.
If you can see the cells you should be able to use basic math to get the cell size. vRes/#vCells and hRes/#hCells
There is notification bar and the bottom part of the Sense UI which I dont know the size.

OzVGA is totally killing me. I have spent hours trying to make mu ozVGA setting work, but bloody thing is just do small.
After applying the VGA .dll's WHAT OZVGA SETTINGS DO YOU USE???
When i switch from seVGA to ozVGA things just go crazy small.
WHAT'S WRONG???
in oz im using these settings
1200 not bold
1350 not bold
19
19
19
750,900,975,1200,1500
The font arrays relate to the text size slider in the screen settings
I'm using the same font sizes for true VGA and for the qVGA-mode. It means that fonts are small on the screen but oh so beautiful! Larger font sizes just made certain things look ugly, which kinda defeated the purpose of switching to VGA, IMHO.
I guess it depends what you're using your Universal for. Most of the apps I'm using allow me to scale their fonts so when I need larger fonts I can have them. Only the Microsoft apps have unscalable fonts...
Make sure you have the text size set to medium in the Screen control panel applet. I found that it helps to turn Cleartype OFF as well.
And I wear glasses
what about phone app, myne goes all funny, and very small. I can barely see numbers, and the whole keypad just stays at the corner of the screen. that,s abir annoying.
and I think I will have to wear glasses very soon with text size like that.
svyatko - this is all being discussed in the other thread, with suggestions for replacements etc...

When I say big I meant to say 16x16 or 32x32 whatever is the average size I keep seeing on all those nice themes and WM5 based PDA phones...
Is there some kind of plug in or how I do it...?
I am sorry I'm a noob - but anyone willing to help me? Thank You!!!!!!!
Tnx
Try reading the iPhone threads and see how they're implemented...
Generally claunch or wisbar...

For big icons, you could also try iLauncher, PocketPlus, and... didn't somebody else just release a new tab launcher?
As vijay noted, the fanciest screens are pretty much gonna be using Wisbar or claunch.
go to screen settings, ie for stylus setup, then youll see text size!

The icon itself can't be over 32 pixels, but you can set the actual size of the icon on the screen larger than that. However, you *may* lose some resolution in doing that.
I use claunch too. Its simple and very usefull application. bravo maheri, kar tako naprej. Keep on, maisters.

i see.
so then, no more solution it's simple same cLaunch?
i don't like wisbar.
any simple software like cLaunch can make my PPC like iPhone
Yes. All you need is cLaunch. Keep your maximum icon size at 32 and then set the icon size you want on the screen. I've seen some good results with icons as large as 48 on the screen. I personally set my icon size on the screen for 36 -- but that's only due to how I want it to end up looking with a set number of rows and tabs.

so, the quality is bad.
i think good icon size for iPhone theme is : 42 x 42 pixels.
I just mail to cLaunch author, but have no response.
perhaps i'll switch to this solution:

If I look carefully my display I can notice that display image is not properly centered, infact it has two different black vertical bounds.
I would like to expand image to cover all the display area (like a regulation for lcd displays for example...).
Is it possible??

Hi. That's a bit vague - difficult to understand. Can you take a screenshot so we can see what you mean?
Yes I know it is a bit vague, but unfortunately I can't take any screenshot of this, bacause it would show nothing about this problem... I'll had to use an external camera, but at moment the only one I have is the leo's one...
Let me see if I can explain in little words... what I see is that the potential area of display is for example 480x800, but the real display (image on display) is smaller leaving black bounds all around it; it seems projected to a smaller surface, resulting in a smaller display experience (not so much to be honest ).
Given that in all pc monitors you can adjust image position and size to best fit its window, I was asking if it could be possible also on this leo device.
Hope you can better understand now...
If, for example, I open Internet Explorer and wait till the address bar and bottom buttons disappear, I'm left with a mostly white display. There IS a border of about 1mm all the way round this.
Is this what you are talking about?
Yes, it should be! In my case the stripe on the left side is a bit thinner than the one on the right...

That's not an active display area. The display shouldn't go to the very edge, so there's nothing wrong with your phone, and no, you can't expand the display.
Ok, thanks a lot!
I know this is not something we can do, but hoping a dev will see this and answer, but now that we can change the size of the screen from 240 to 220 or 180, thats great, but can the preset size of the space it keeps be changed to? For example:
You have 4 icons or more, if you press and hold to move the icons there is a size box in green/yellow border that as you move the icon moves, but now the box is bigger then the icon, if we could make it smaller, then we would be able to put more icons on the screen.
Anyone else feel the same way?

not sure if this is exactly what you want, but launcher pro allows you to change how many icons you can fit horizontally or vertically
also take a look at Multi icon widget:
http://www.appbrain.com/app/multicon-widget/com.h9kdroid.multicon
Actually yes thats what I was talking about, but can it be done without the need of a 3rd party app? And thanks for pointing me to this app.
this mod would be awesome for htc sense. it's one reason why i changed from sense to gingerbread (with go launcher)...
Hi, I would like to use a note 3 with external monitor when im away from home but I would prefer more real estate. Is there a way to trick android into thinking it is a larger screen and reduce the icon sizes shown. By this I specifically want to be able to program on it so reducing the font size to show more of the document on the screen would be great.
Thanks for any suggestions.
