It is not only this "Show Time" extension that does like that. As I said, also when I run the MR Package Installer, that "Hush little baby" and other writings that come when it is installing hacks, those also are really really small, much smaller than with my PW2.
It is probably like that because PW3's screen has more dpi, yet I would like to see the lines a little bigger (as they were in PW2).

If you could point me to the files where the logic for font size is at work, I might try to experiment. Thank you!
The master copy is in one of his public repositories, but . . . .

From the snapshots thread, download the dummy_test archive.
Un-archive.
Look in the Dummy/build directory for the file libotautils5.
It hasn't been updated since July 11th.
The fall-back when a model isn't identified is the Kindle Touch (800x600).

If you find a fix or update for that, then we can go searching for the public repository the master copy is in.

Note: The serial number to nickname table only has one of the two PW3-32 model numbers, nobody has given us the other one (one black, one white).

But the libotautils5 script include is where the code is at that has to have its model recognition updated.

Then update KindleTool (for model recognition, this utility script, and the two new models) -
Then use the newly updated KindleTool to rebuild all the packages in the Snapshots thread.

But just finding the changes needed in the include script on an already installed add-in would be one part of the time consuming process done.

Hmm...
Maybe the master copy of this file is in the same repo that KindleTool is in - that sort of makes sense, but I haven't looked yet.
