So I would say the patch "as is" is already useful one . Most of the text under Settings was also bigger (with the exception for screens like one under "About Kobo..." where some graphics is used).
P.S. Maybe library setting are in other parts of Kobo (nickel? as in case of "Menu")?

Good that at least something changed at all. I was already wondering, ...
If you would like to do a further experiment, I have prepared some materials.
Generally speaking, there are three canditates that could contain the css code for the library view.
- plain text in libnickel.so.1.0.0
- plain text in nickel
- zlib compressed text in nickel
Therefore, I have prepared three patch files, one for each of the three possible sources. Since we need for this experiment more flexibility, I did it a little different from yesterday.
Preparation:
- copy the content of the archive into a folder on your PC
- copy nickel and libnickel.so.1.0.0 (mark 4) to the folder 3.5.0_source
The names of the configuration files for the patcher have the pattern conf_xxx.txt. If a file name does not start with conf_, the file will not be processed. I prefixed a "_" to the configuration files to disable them, apart from conf_nickel_empty.txt and conf_libnickel.so.1.0.0_plus50.txt. The configuration file conf_nickel_empty.txt does not change anything in nickel. The purpose is that you have a clean nickel. So that you can be sure any change you see is done by conf_libnickel.so.1.0.0_plus50.txt.
1 test:
- run 3.5.0.bat
- copy the produced KoboRoot.tgz to .kobo
- look (among other things) whether liberary view has changed (if nothing has changed there, I will be really shocked)
2 test:
- prefix "_" to conf_nickel_empty.txt and conf_libnickel.so.1.0.0_plus50.txt (or delete these two files)
- remove the prefixed "_" from _conf_nickel_zlibcss_plus50.txt and _conf_libnickel_empty.txt
- run 3.5.0.bat
- copy the produced KoboRoot.tgz to .kobo
- ...
3 experiment:
- prefix "_" to conf_nickel_zlibcss_plus50.txt and _conf_libnickel_empty.txt (or delete these two files)
- remove the prefixed "_" from _conf_nickel_plaincss_plus50.txt
- run 3.5.0.bat
- copy the produced KoboRoot.tgz to .kobo
- ...
By now we should hopefully know which patch file influences the library view. It is even not impossible, that more than one patch file is involved. Anyway, it should give us a hint where to start.
By the way, I have all three files applied to my Touch. The result is not so bad. User settings>accounts is one of the worst, however.
