BBCondensed 7 I find best, other than that Clarity.

BBMillbank Tall 8 Plain, I set it up the first day I got my BB and use 'till today

BBMillbank Tall, 8, Bold, Antialiasing.

Can someone explain the difference between antialiasing and no antialiasing? I can't figure it out.

Thanks.

It's basically "font smoothing". In fact, in OS 4.2, that's how it's listed under your Screen/Keyboard options. They changed it from "antialiasing".

Select the 'System' font and save it. Then pick whatever font you want and it will be smaller than the listed smallest size.

You can tell that it's smaller by looking at the settings screen. With BBCasual on the normal size 7, there are 13 options listed on the screen. After doing the 'trick' there are 15 options listed on the settings screen.

I do the same 'trick' but with BBClarity/antialiasing... love the font

I alternate between BB Clarity, BB Millibank tall and BB Casual.

Oh, I like that, brother. I think that far too few people have explored this great font. I set up some of my friends on BBCasual 10 Bold Antialiasing (which is what I use) and none of them have switched away. Nothing is clearer for reading long emails and everything else looks ugly to me now.

am I the only one this trick doesn't work for?

I use BBMillbank 7 and if I switch to system and switch back the smallest font I still have is BBMillbank 7. sucks cause the old 7280 i could go down to 6.

[justin.culp]

works for me....set you type to 'system', then save it.

Then go back in and select a different font, you will then have more size choices associated with the chosen font.

[earth]

weird. maybe because I'm using zen theme. smallest I can go is 7.

[RemyJ]

Thats the trick. It SAYS 7 but if you look in your messages list you'll see that you get a few more lines displayed.

If it's working, with BBMillibankTall/7 you should see all the screen/keyboard options without scrolling.

[earth]

hey ur right. interesting

as an aside, why did RIM get rid of the 6 size font? hell, I would have even loved 5.
