#replace_string = DBDC20, `max-height: 70px;`, `max-height: 50px;`
#replace_string = DBDC3D, `footerMargin: 105;`, `footerMargin: 170;`
#replace_string = DBDC58, `font-size: 16px;`, `font-size: 35px;`
#replace_string = DBDC6A, `padding-bottom: 0px;`, `padding-bottom: 8px;`
#replace_string = DBDC80, `margin-top: 0px;`, `margin-top:13px;`

Gives me this result: ( still a bit to much wasted space on the Aura HD bottom,but I can't get that better.)
When I looked at the changes you used for your Aura HD, I noticed you used a footer margin of 170, a margin-top of 13 and a font size of 36. I think that those values are contributing to your wasted space on the bottom.

On my H2O, I am using the following values which give me more lines of text on the bottom compared to your screenshot:

Code:
replace_string = D54355, `min-height: 70px;`, `min-height: 50px;`
replace_string = D54368, `max-height: 70px;`, `max-height: 50px;`
replace_string = D54385, `footerMargin: 40;`, `footerMargin: 20;`
replace_string = D5439F, `font-size: 16px;`, `font-size: 26px;`
replace_string = D543B1, `padding-bottom: 0px;`, `padding-bottom: 8px;`
replace_string = D543C7, `margin-top: 0px;`, `margin-top: 0px;`

I tried searching the various patcher threads, but couldn't find a really good detailed explanation describing what each variable is. I am guessing that:
-max & min height sets the vertical dimension of the footer text box
-font-size (obvious)
-margin-top sets the distance from the footer text box top and the bottom of the body text box?

My uncertainty comes when I try and figure out the differences between footerMargin and padding-bottom. What dimension is the padding referring to? The distance between the bottom of the screen and the footer text box? How would this compare to the footerMargin?
