Extras Layout
Overview
This little application installs an additional button "Layout" in the extras
drawer. After tapping this button you can modify the spacing for the icons in the extras
and in the button bar. Further you can set the font for displaying the text under the
icons.
Installation
Please make a backup first. It's always a good idea to backup your device before you
install a new program. Even if we have tested all of our programs very intense, because of
the variety of existing programs and system configurations no one can guarantee that no
problem will occur.
Transfer the Layout.pkg file to your Newton OS device by using an appropriate package
installation program, like NBU, NCU or the Newton Package Installer.
Operation
Open the extras drawer and tap on the 'Layout' button.

You can change the horizontal and vertical spacing for the icons in the extras drawer
by tapping the two left number controls. For changing the spacing of the icons in the
button bar you will use the number control at the right.
Also you can change the font in family, size and style which will be used for the text
in the extras drawer and the button bar.
If you have changed something, you will see the effect instantly.
Troubleshooting
Note that changing the horizontal spacing only will result in a visible change, if
there will fit more or fewer icons in a row.
You can use builtin fonts only. This is to avoid problems which will occur if you
remove a font used in extras.
Tap the 'Defaults' button to reset all settings to their default values.
