Dynamic text boxes, font size issues

Question

I have created a dynamic text box and an input text box.
I have produced code that replicates whatever is typed in the
input box to display in the dynamic box along with a date and time
stamp once a button is clicked.
This all works fine, except for the sizes of the fonts. for
both boxes, i selected font size 10 . The input box is fine,
however the dynamic box text is huge.
When i make the dynamic text font smaller, it fits in fine,
but the input text that is inserted into the dynamic text box comes
in too big. If i make the input text box font smaller it is
unreadable when typing it in.
any soultion to how to make my font consistent. I am assumin
the problem is because both the text boxes are different sizes,
however i don't know how to resolve the issue.
Any help is much appreciated.

Answer 1

var today_date:Date = new Date();
var date_str:String =
(today_date.getDate()+"/"+(today_date.getMonth()+1)+"/"+today_date.getFullYear());
var my_date:Date = new Date();
var boat = ""
btn_send.onPress = function() {
var today_date:Date = new Date();
var date_str:String =
(today_date.getDate()+"/"+(today_date.getMonth()+1)+"/"+today_date.getFullYear());
var my_date:Date = new Date();
date_txt = date_str + " " + my_date.getHours() + ":" +
my_date.getMinutes() + ":" + my_date.getSeconds() + " " + boat;
the text appears in the dynamic box it just is a mish mash of
font sizes!!!
