Question about screen pressure hack and WM5 button and scroll sizes
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

I've not had any problems requiring high pressure but I am sick of the side of my face causing my phone to do all manners of crazy things during a conversation

Here is the Pressure THreshold hack and the default? value in my regsitry for Pressure Threshold is 7871

note it says do not reduce the pressure but I'd sure like to since I have zero problems with my stylus, screen scratching, or screen breakage........ so far anyhow

then I'd like the tiny scrolls and "x boxes" to be larger so I can operate them with my finger

any suggestions of such a registry modification for that?

still scratching my head on which big button, easy on the eyes, utilitarian phone skin to use but it surely does need bigger buttons

thanks again

Here ya go...Change the thickness of scrollbars
To change the thickness of the scrollbars at the right/bottom of documents larger than the screen, adjust...
For the horizontal (bottom) scrollbar:
HKLM\System\GWE\cyHScr = 9 (DWORD decimal)

For the vertical (right) scrollbar:
HKLM\System\GWE\cxVScr = 9 (DWORD decimal)
The default thickness is 13. You can set the value to pretty much anything you like

Change the length of scrollbar arrow buttons
To go with changing the thickness of the scrollbars, you may wish to change the length of the scrollbar arrow buttons...
For the horizontal (bottom) scrollbar arrows:
HKLM\System\GWE\cyVScr = 9 (DWORD decimal)

For the vertical (right) scrollbar:
HKLM\System\GWE\cxHScr = 9 (DWORD decimal)

The default length is 13. You can set the value to pretty much anything you like

that one helped alot

now for the task and tool bars

If I could make them thicker I would seldom, if ever need the stylus

and also nice would be the alpha boxes across the top of the contacts list

would love for those to be much larger so as to enable them to be activated with a fingernail
