Hello all,
Just wondering if anyone knows the registry key (or other) to adjust the vertical spacing of the separator (horizontal line) between items in a menu. My Rogers Touch Diamond came out of the box with terribly altered menu font sizes and various other items with the intention (I'm assuming) to make it more touch friendy. The problem is the menus were never designed to be this way, so it appeared very sloppy and out of place. I finally managed to find the various registry keys to bring font sizes and selection dots and check marks back to the normal size (as per my previous HTC Touch) with the exception of one thing: the spacing above and below the horizontal separator line.
The first attached image ("Old.jpg") shows how the menu previously looked on my Touch. The second image ("New.jpg") shows how my Diamond currently looks. You'll notice that everything is basically the same now, except for the space above and below the horizontal line.
I did some searching, and came across the "SepYMrg" key in HKLM\System\GWE\Menu. The MSDN site (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa911384.aspx) defines this key as "the margin of white space above the menu separator line", which sounds like what I am looking for (or at least half of it). The key did not exist in my registry but, after adding and adjusting it, the result was still not what I'm after; instead of adding more "white space" above and below the line, it seemed to make the line thicker. The third attached image ("Adj.jpg") shows the result.
Does anyone know how I can make the necessary adjustments to get my Diamond's menus looking like the old ones? Any help would be much appreciated, as always.
Regards,
:cool:
