Ive always been curious if there is a way to add a shadow behind all the text in TF3D. With the text being white, some wallpapers cant be used because they "hide" the text and that really limits the wallpaper use in TF3D if you want to be able to read messages, etc.

If there is a way to place a text shadow behind all the text in touchflo, it would be a great achievement and im sure it would please a very great deal of people. Does anybody know a way to do this, or have any ideas on how to?

I tryed posting this question in the manila 2.1 thread twice, but no luck as there are so many people eager for help, and im okay with that because i know thats what xda is all about. :)

I guess it's possible, you could change the font in mode9 files...
In Manila 2.6 you get a nice semi-transparent area under the text on the home screen - that's a nice improvement.

Do you think Manila 2.6 will be ported to VGA, i see 2.5 is in the works, and 2.6 has just been released for the Leo, but its format is suited more for WVGA, lets just cross our fingers :D

any suggestion on how the text could be changed to have the same font but just with a shadow?
