InBox Font Size and Layout

6 replies · 5,816 views · Started 16 January 2008

My N95 InBox only shows 5 messages at a time before having to scroll down to see more, so it looks like:

John Smith
subject

(5 times)

Now i have seen an E65 which has a smaller screen but the font is smaller and the layout is a table with 1 line per message.
So the E65 layout is

From name Subject Date/time

and because the font is so small it looks like i can get about 15 - 20 lines of text (i..e messages) per screen.

If both these devices are S60 3rd edition, can the N95 do a table view of messages similar to the E series?

I've added screen caps.

thanks.

just as a point of comment:

either way, you have to press the scroll button down the corresponding amount of times, so why not have the text in a clearer/larger format?

Having more on the screen doesnt mean you can get to the mail quicker? I only see that there are more message details available on the E series...

Aaaah...is this not possible on N95 (8gb)?! 😞

Layout in my inbox folder is like this:

John Smith

I thought it was possible to set it up like this:

John Smith
20:00 01/01/2008

John Smith
19:00 01/01/2008

...but obviously it isn't... 😞 ...Or am I missing something?!

The one line versus two line option is, unfortunately, something you only get on Eseries devices.
