Root Changing text size

[Fuzzy13]

How would i go about changing the text size in the settings app.

Is it globally controlled? Will other sizes change as well?

Also instead of the text being centered between the dividers in the settings menu, how would i change it to sit right above each divider?

Any info would be great. Thanks

I would make it smaller. I think you change font colors for mms.

Look in the styles

Youll see stuff like (this is from the stock settings)

<style name="TextAppearance" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance" />
<style name="TextAppearance.info_label" parent="@style/TextAppearance">
<item name="android:textSize">14.0sp</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">bold</item>
</style>
<style name="TextAppearance.info_small" parent="@style/TextAppearance">
<item name="android:textSize">12.0sp</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">normal</item>
</style>
<style name="TextAppearance.info_value" parent="@style/TextAppearance">
<item name="android:textSize">14.0sp</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">normal</item>

It globally changes the font but its cool to get an idea of what it would look like.
