Guest pcfrnd Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 (edited) hi, although i have done it on an OmniaII, yet i guess it is applicable on win6.5 regardless of the ppc. ok, i searched too much for a cab, or any to control start menu font. change sys font is available, menus but not the start menu. for no reason i know, the start menu has its own control. i was able to make it 3 or 4 or 5 columns , but not the font any way manually, go to win folder, locate the following 2 files: StartMenu_GridScene_480x800.cpr StartMenu_GridScene_480x800.cpr they are the files controlling how u see start menu then open both or any of them - i modified both- u will get the following ================= <Form Width="480" Height="800"> <StartMenu_GridScene ID="Scene"> <GridView ID="Start Menu Items List" Top="0" Left="0" Width="480" Height="696" Columns="3" Scrollable="TRUE" HexagonGrid="TRUE" HorizontalWrapAround="TRUE"> <Image ID="Selection" Left="0" Top="-30" Width="192" Height="158" Source=".\StartMenu_Selection.png" /> <Layer ID="GridItem" Width="192" Height="166" OnAction ="GridItemAction"> <Layer ID="Normal"> <Image ID="Image" Left="51" Top="4" Width="90" Height="90" ScaleStyle="Fit" /> <Text ID="Text" Left="18" Top="98" Width="156" Height="68" FontFamily="Tahoma" FontSize="7" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top" Wrap="True" Trimming="EllipsisCharacter" ForeColor="#00FFFFFF" BackColor="#00000000" /> </Layer> </Layer> <Layer ID="NoItems"> <Text ID="Text" Width="480" Height="40" FontFamily="Tahoma" FontSize="10" ForeColor="#00FFFFFF" Wrap="False" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Trimming="Character" InnerTextType="Resource">shellres.dll,22596</Text> </Layer> </GridView> </StartMenu_GridScene> </Form> ====================== ok, i know nothing about this details except the red ones i changed it from 7 to 14 .... for example, so i got what u see in the attached files. the font group can also changed. i used notepad on my desktop and returned them to my omniaII. every change neeeeeeds restart to take effect.
