Increase the Size of Your Screen (no Scrollbars)

no pixelsSince you already have a scroll wheel and you also have Touch Flo at our disposal (you know, the ability to swipe or flick the screen up and down), do you really need a vertical scroll bar? The big payoff is that there’s more screen but once you make the change you really notice that the screen feels bigger since your emails now take up the entire screen and whenever I can get more screen I’m in.

The change is simple. You can use Kaiser Tweak (it’s under user interface) and just set the vertical scrollbar width to 10 (it starts at 13 and that’s the lowest you can go). Of course, if you want to go more extreme you can manually change your registry. The key is HKLM\System\GWE\cxVScr = 0 (if you want something higher than zero, 13 is the default so you can make it something smaller as a ‘just in case’ bar)

By the way once you do this there’s still a faint set of three lines about 1 pixel wide and a total of 1/8" high that still appear to show you where on the page you are.
