Default 4.5.0.46 Address Book question

Please Login to Remove!

Hello All, Today I upgraded my TMO 8320 to 4.5.0.46 without issue. Upon investigating all of the changes and new features I discovered a new look of the Address Book. Before the address book seemed to be one name per line, now it seems that names are spaced at 1.5 or maybe even double spaced.

I've exhausted all of my options so I thought I would post.

Does anyone know a workaround or is this just the way it is?

Just the way it is in OS 4.5. There's no option to change it.

If the contact has a "company name" then it will show on the second line. Most of my contacts do not have a company name associated with them, so it ends up just being wasted space for me. I don't care for it.

Also I've noticed under Address Book, Options you have a Seperator setting. The options are None, Stripes, and Lines. I can't tell any difference between the three. Can anyone tip me off to what exactly this setting does?

If I set mine to "lines" then I get line separators. If I set it to stripes I get no lines but just shading differences between contacts.

Cool, I see that now. Very faint but once I got in better lighting or held my BB at an angle I could see this.

Thanks again
