Maybe one day I'll have a look at the font creation process, but as I have several more urgent things ongoing, it will surely reported to whenever :). At worst, I'll stick to HIGH font which seems to be compatible with the sleep of my girlfriend :). peter;363010 Wrote: > > Yeah, I know that problem.

The SB3 is also beside my pillow, but being sleepy and short-sighted is too much for the small size of the font. I wonder what makes the date disappear (could it be tweaked in SC?)... it would be nice to have just the clock with the upper sized font. -- vrobin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ vrobin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11705 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55353 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
