Description Attila Csipa (reporter) nokia

2009-10-20 13:31:47 UTC

SOFTWARE VERSION:
Maemo 5, 1.2009.41-10

STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM:
Start IM chat, press zoom in/out buttons

EXPECTED OUTCOME:
Zoom in/out to see more content or the whole content in bigger letters

ACTUAL OUTCOME:
The letter size changes, but the layout is not reflown, so zooming in results
in text/time getting out of the screen, and zooming out results in unused/empty
space.

REPRODUCIBILITY:
always

EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED:

This will be made moot by an update release that will remove zoom altogether.

Comment 2 Jeff Moe 2009-12-01 20:32:42 UTC

If zoom is removed, how will font size be increased in IM?

I know someone who wants N900, but can't read the IM's because they are too
small, and zooming them makes one have to scroll left/right which is less than
optimal....

Let's give it another go, then.

Comment 4 Uwe Kaminski 2009-12-01 22:07:08 UTC

First there should be a solution for Bug 6347 (Volume vs. Zoom using the
hardware volume keys).

IMHO also in this application the volume keys should work as volume keys. :)

Let's not get bogged down with the button question from the other bug - here,
it's about the ability to change the size of the text, regardless of the
required user input to do this (menu, +/- buttons, UI elements, etc)

This is a WONTFIX for Maemo5 as the fix is not too easy to do and involves
quite some work.

Comment 7 Jeff Moe 2010-02-04 02:05:45 UTC

FYI: In PR1.1 the ability to increase font size has been removed. Hitting the
volume rocker does not increase font size anymore, it changes sound volume.
