That depends on the application. The examples you've shown include icons on the same line and it's the height of the icon that determines the height of the line.
Applications like a text editor should adapt to the smaller font size. I'm working on an app myself that is smart enough to put more lines of text on the screen if they will fit. Scalable UI is a really good feature of S60V3...
Excellent review Ewan! What theme are you using?
That's the most known theme since 6600 and also the most readable.
ratza,
Maybe you could tell me the name of the theme because I'm rather new to S60 and smartphones in general? The readability was what attracted me to this theme.
Hi,
I think that's 'White' (Or 'White Revisited'😉 by Daniel - formerly of e61life.com. The links I could find seem to be dead. His site closed a while back.
I still have a copy on my phone & it is very good. Shame if this one has been lost to the net. Maybe someone has an archived copy they'd like to upload?
Jonek - Igbase is a very similar style theme with good readibility:

Thanks a lot! Great theme !
Thanks for the tip epo.fm. The igbase theme is good.
Thank's to dvp over on the HowardForums, we've managed to find a copy of 'White_Revisited' Version 1.3. You can download it here
