The letters on the keys are absurdly small on the Droid X MT Keyboard port. Anyone know of a way to increase the font size rendered on the keys, our are the letters images?

Is there a way to make the keyboard layout in Window Mobile 6 bigger? I have switched the layout icon in the keyboard setting to large, but I need it bigger for finger typing. The screen size of the Shift is perfect to have a virtual keyboard working; it would cut down on the wear and tear of sliding the keyboard tray every time in slate mode.

You might like one of the many full screen keyboards which are available, check the forum search or google. If you've installed RealVGA, you'll need a VGA version of the keyboard.
I was wondering if the layout could be mod to make it bigger instead of installing third party software. I am currently trying out the Resco Keyboard Pro and it's a great software.

Hi, have just begun to use my X10 Mini Pro. Very satisfied as such but frustrated in the use of the HW keyboard. Specifically, I am having problems generating "non-English" letters, such as Å, Ä and Ö. On the keyboard there is a key labled "Sym/âü", all this does, however, is bring up smileyes, pretty much. Anyone know how to generate these other letters from the keyboard?
Thanks/M
Anyone know if it's possible to tweak the qwerty keyboard? I'm coming over from a TP2 and I like the builtin KB that HTC provides, and it should be even nicer on the larger screen, but it's not as handy as it could be. There are extra, blank keys on the 2/2 Numeric pad and I'm wondering if it's possible to add some keys. For instance it would be very handy to have a space key in the numeric pads.
I just upgraded from a TYTN II and i do miss the physical keyboard and i'm not too crazy over the software keyboard mainly because i don't get the tactile feel of pressing the keys.
But have you tried the Swype ? Needs a little getting used to but i'm getting pretty good with Swype and i feel it's a lot faster than typing. Plus it looks pretty cool
Ther are other keyboards. Sorry, I don't recall their name. One was very customizable though. I tired two different ones, but they didn't play nice with predictive text.
I have Resco and I like it well enough, though the version I have doesn't seem to have been built for 800x480 so it doesn't use all of the screen real estate. Therefore the keys are too small.
I like the HTC QWERTY keyboard a lot. It just doesn't seem to be customizable and therefore one has to switch between the screens more than it might otherwise be necessary in order to get the keys you're after. All I really want to do is to be able to enter a space while on the numeric screen. Not move the cursor, but to add an actual space. And to swap a couple of the characters on the 1/2 screen with others on the ABC and 2/2 screens.
Other than that I think it's a great keyboard. The haptic for me provides enough feedback and the keys are plenty big enough. My Leo should be here today or tomorrow and then I can start trying different things. If it turns out Resco's current KB can be made larger then that would probably be just the ticket assuming the HTC KB cannot be customized. I'm not really interested in tryiing Swype, but thanks for the tip.
I would imagine there's an XML keymap somewhere that we could conceivably edit but I'm not sure, i'd like to know the answer as well.

you dont mean THIS space then?
I'm running windows 8 consumer preview through a dell st2220t touch screen monitor & I'm having trouble resizing the on screen keyboard.
To resize the keyboard you must change to thumb style keyboard then press and hold the button with 3 dots on it, this gives you small, medium & large.
The default appears to be large & takes up half the screen. The dell is a 21.5" wide screen so its massive blot on the landscape.
So the problem is that in standard resolution (1920*1080) I get no option for the thumb keyboard and there for no option to resize the keyboard. The only resolution that allows me to change to the thumb keyboard is (1024*768) but when I hold the button with three dots all the size options are grey out and unselectable.
At first I had managed to change the size but after messing with the dpi settings it changed back to large and is now stuck.
I've tried changing the dpi, graphics drivers (GeForce 285 & 295) even reinstalled windows (full reinstall with format) but had no luck.
Any one got any clues? its hard to find any useful info @ the moment with the Microsoft propaganda machine on full tilt and the eagerness of most websites to regurgitate any small rumour going.
Lots of reads but no replies
Even if you haven't got a touch screen, would be good if someone with a GeForce gfx card running in 1080p could call up the onscreen keyboard and see if you can change the keyboard size. Instructions in top post.
Any comments would be appreciated.
Turned out it was my trust pen tablet conflicting, doh!

Old thread, but if you create a key
HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\scaling\MonitorSize with a value that equates to your screen size in inches you can override the default size. Windows tries to make the OSK the same size on all screens (so you can type with it, it'd be pretty annoying if the keys got massive on huge screens).

So if I have a 60" HDTV measured diagonally I enter 60?

I think the bigger question here is why you would need an on screen keyboard on a 60" tv

I use Splashtop on my iPad to control my Windows 8 pc that's connected to my HDTV and I need the on screen keyboard to be large enough so I can type. If my TV is off when I turn on my PC it will be sized correctly on the iPad but when the TV is on it will be tiny.
hi guys, finally I've my moto x play right there next to me. I really like the device but I've a question, is there a way to change the comma key in the keybord at the left of the space with the apostrophe key?
i think you have to use swift keyboard for that. Google keyboard is not customisable.
