Use font sizes smaller than 10pt on the Desktop
Authored by: kmnosxhints on Aug 02, '10 11:14:14PM

Help. I am using Snow Leopard 10.6.4

my finder plist does not have those keys exactly, instead this is all I can find for "DesktopView" & anything about font size for it:


<key>DesktopViewSettings</key>
...

<key>textSize</key>
<real>10</real>


When I try to change the <real>10</real> to <real>8</real> and relaunch finder, it seems to reset it back to default, icon size 48 & font size 12... After, going back into plist editor, there are no keys for textsize anymore, unless I change some view settings in finder again... I can't get this hint to work in Snow Leopard...

Would like to change my desktop icons fonts size to 8 or 9, and have the grid space even larger (wider) than default possible so that I can see the entire title of my files (or more of it)
