Font Size Selector on Ruler

According to the new features listed with the new Pages app, there is supposed to be a new font size selector on the ruler in addition to the Style, Bold, Italic, Underline, and Tab stuff. I do not see it. Does anyone else see it?

I thought it would there when I first read it, but look at the grammar;it isn't on the ruler. I just checked it. What they have done is added a press-and-hold to continue changing the font size instead of tapping it constantly....
At least that's what I think they've done.

  • My only font size option is px

    I am using Dreamweaver CS6.
    The only font option I ever get is px choices. 
    The CSS option Type Font size dropdown is greyed out and locked on px
    I have read that the default option should be percentage, but I cannot get that to appear.
    Advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi Nancy
    I am using Dreamweaver CS6
    Until today I could only use px choice for font selection in CSS rules.  That applies to existing rules or any new rules I created.
    However, following advice here, I went into the CSS code for that rule, changed Type Font-size from px to %
    The rule immediately permitted me to select other versions of font sizes for that rule.  The example shown in the screen shot is where I have not yet  amended the coding.  Maybe you can see that the Type Font-size is greyed out to px only.  However, once I go into the rule and amend the code the drop down then permits % and all the other choices for that rule.  But for that rule only. 
    Any new CSS rules the same applies.  The new rule offers only px. font size.  However, once I change the code manually the rule gets "freed-up"
    However, In the properties window at the foot of the screen indicates that I can select % or whatever font measurement I wish.  That is new.
    From my point of view I have an answer to my question, although it is a sort of work-around. 
    Best wishes

  • Font-size rule in table

    Hello,
    I am having trouble understanding why a CSS rule isn't making it into a table. Here is an example:
    http://alumweb.mit.edu/clubs/pugetsound.pages/table-experiment.html
    The stylesheet associated with this page has a rule for body that specifies a font-size of 12px. None of the containing div's has a rule that would override this. As a consequence, the two lines of text not inside the table (the "outside world" lines) are rendered at 12px. However, for some reason, the text inside the table is not; it looks like it renders at 16px. I don't understand why this is so. I don't think there are any rules in the stylesheet that should cause this. Needless to say, I would like the text inside the table to use the same text-size as the rest of the body!
    Although consistent with how the page behaves in a browser, the behavior of Dreamweaver (I'm using CS4) seems strange as well. If I click in text outside the table, the CSS Styles palette shows the values I expect--the correct font-family, font-size, line-height, and color values (from the body rule), and text-align (from the #containerMain rule). However, when I click in text inside the table (for example, in "world"), the only property shown in the "Summary for Selection" area in the palette is the font-family, and the lower part of the palette (in this case, labeled "Properties for 'body'", all the property names are lined-through except font-family. Even more confounding, Dreamweaver does not offer an explanation for why some of the properties (including font-size) are not applied. In other words, if I hover over the lined-through background-color, a tooltip appears explaining why it doesn't apply, but if I hover over font-size, no tooltip appears.
    I'd really like to understand why this is happening, not just find a workaround. I'm happy to provide additional information if needed. Any help is greatly appreciated.
    thanks!
    --Dave

    Yes! That did the trick! I didn't even notice that it was such an old doctype; luckily, just had to make the change in the base template. Thank you so much, sir!

  • Change Report Font Size for Printer Friendly Page

    I have a report using a template of 'Reports Region' and I have a link to a printer friendly page. Because the report text is so big I would like to make it smaller. I have already reduced the width of the report region but that has made 2 page reports run into 4 pages. I tried adding tags to the page to modify it but I was only able to make the text at the top of the page smaller and not the report. I tried modifying the theme_V3.css file but I could not find a place to modify text/font size in the report (This was trial and error as I am unfamiliar with css).
    I would like to only have it smaller on the printer friendly page but if I will be forced to change it all the time I would like to know if there is at least an option.
    If the only way to make this happen is to build a custom report then so be it. (But again the printer friendly page only pulls in the current page and I want it to only be small on the printer page)
    I am on V2.2.
    Thanks

    You need to use a print media stylesheet. You'll need to find class(es) or other CSS selector(s) to attach the font size rule(s) to - look at the HTML source for your page.

  • Make spry child font size different from parent

    Hi you all,
    Hi am using the old spry menu. This works for me so i dont need the spry ui menu.If you want to make the child text font sixe and padding different create your own selectors.
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul li a
        font-size: 12px;
        padding: .2em 1em;
    works fine instead of having every thing been the same.

    thank you very much, Nancy!

  • Setting documnet font size

    Can one set up a default font size using CSS? Using the body
    tag I can control the font face but not the size. This is my body
    style:
    body {
    font: 11px/1.3 Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 11px;
    margin: 10px 14px;
    background-color: #AAB;
    The default fonts appear in Verdana but not 11 pixels. Though
    the font size appears in the generic font tag, I repeated the
    font-size to make sure that wouldn't help but it doesn't make any
    difference. Any ideas?
    Tom

    You are creating pages that do not have a doctype. This will
    cause them to
    render in quirks mode. In quirks mode, styles applied to
    <body> do NOT
    inherit into table cells. Thus, you would have to add to your
    rule to
    include a td in the selector. HOWEVER, you will find it's
    much more
    reliable (not to mention safer) to begin including valid and
    complete
    doctypes on your pages so that your pages will render in
    standards mode.

  • New style created when changing font size

    Whenever I highlight some text and change the font size in

    It depends very much on precisely what you mean in the above.
    I will assume
    that when you say 'one line' you mean 'one paragraph'. to do
    that, you
    would create a rule like this -
    #content p.special { font-size:16px; }
    and then apply the 'special' class to the paragraph in
    question by selecting
    it with the tag selector, right clicking to get the context
    menu, and using
    "Set class to -> special".
    Or, you could click in the paragraph tag in question and use
    the 'Style'
    selector on the Property inspector to select "special".
    If, instead, you meant one line within a paragraph, then you
    would have to
    select that text, and surround it with a span tag (using
    Ctrl-t). Apply the
    'special' class to the span tag, and adjust your rule like
    this -
    #content span.special { font-size:16px; }

  • How can I change the font size on the post of WordPress?

    I have found three websites which address WordPress style sheets:
    Playing With Fonts: http://codex.wordpress.org/Playing_With_…
    Font Size and Color: http://en.support.wordpress.com/editors/…
    How to Change Font Size In Wordpress: http://www.ehow.com/how_5469172_change-f…
    Here are the instructions from the third website above:
    Things You'll Need:
    Site designed in Wordpress
    Administrator access
    Step 1
    First, to change the font size on a Wordpress site you need to log into the site as administrator. If you do not know how to reach the login page, simply add "/wp-login.php" after the "www.url.com" address. Then login using the admin sign in.
    Step 2
    Next, get to the Wordpress file editor by going to Appearance->Editor.
    Step 3
    Once in Editor, identify the Stylesheet file (style.css) and click to edit. This is usually located on the right hand side under the "Styles" heading.
    Step 4
    Once in the style.css file, you want to conduct a search for "fontsize". This parameter is used throughout the style.css file and is the parameter used to control font size. Next to "fontsize" you will see something like "16px". Simply increase or decrease the "16" to change font size. The tricky part is to figure out which "fontsize" you want to edit.
    The way to do this is to first look at the heading it is under. If it is under "comment-template", it is obviously related to either the font size of the comments themselves or perhaps the comment form or the date/time stamp of the comment.
    It may take a little trial and error to find the right "fontsize" to modify. Simply modify the one you think is correct and in a separate window, reload the page with the font you are looking to modify. If it did not change, undo the previous edit and try a different "fontsize".
    I went to the Dashboard and clicked on the “Appearance” icon on the left-hand side, and then clicked on editor. I clicked on Stylesheet (style.css), but I have not been able to find the “fontsize” that would change my post font size. As the author writes: "The tricky part is to figure out which "fontsize" you want to edit." Some of the font sizes are given as a percentage, and I don’t know if these come into question, i.e., if I should try changing one of these to see what happens.
    The end result is that I still have not been able to change my post font size, other than by using the Heading-1-through-6 option, which, I understand, is not the best way to do it.

    From John Waller: “If you're using IE8, hit F12 to launch Developer Tools which give you a point and click method of locating the relevant CSS rule on screen.”
    I have Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) so tried this method.
    This sounded like another promising possibility; however, I have not been able to change the font size in my post using this method.
    I have gone to Dashboard > Posts > Edit > then moused-over my post > clicked on "edit" and then hit F12. An enormous amount (20 pages or more) of CSS appears. I tried picking out the font size that I thought pertains to the post (under Text Area), and I have changed the font size from 13px to 24px; however, I have not been able to “save” the new setting. When I go back to it, it is back to 13px.
    As a result, I have not been able to use a trial-and-error method to establish which font size I must change in order to change the font size of my post.

  • UI font size in dreamweaver is too small - can it be changed?

    Hi,
    I just purchased Dreamweaver CS6 and found to my dismay that the UI font sizes are so small that I need a magnifying glass to read them. At least they give the option for larger UI font sizes in Photoshop, but not in dreamweaver - as far as I can see.
    This was one of the reasons I abandoned dreamweaver after version 8 (Macromedia).
    Adobe really needs to sort this problem out for different screen sizes and accessibility. Even freeware authors get it right.

    I agree, but it is not only DW that is a problem, most of the applications that I use, including this forum, have the same problem.
    My solution, I wear a pair of IT-glasses, sort of like reading glasses that have been further refined for the screen.
    My solution prior to that is as follows
    Right-click on the desktop
    Select "Screen Resolution"
    In the Screen Resolution dialog, there are 3 options in the lower center.
    Click "Make text and other items larger or smaller"
    Chose one of the 3 pre-set sizes <OR>
    In the left column, click "Set Custom text size (DPI)"
    Then scale the ruler until the text size suits your needs.
    This had the unfortunate consequence of reducing the workspace, hence my glasses.

  • Change application font size in Thunderbird 3.

    How can I change the font size in Thunderbird 3? The bold fonts are to bold and the general font size is to big I think.
    I have tested with creating a chrome folder in the default profile. The userChrome.css looks like this. But it didn't work.
    * Edit this file and copy it as userChrome.css into your
    * profile-directory/chrome/
    * This file can be used to customize the look of Mozilla's user interface
    * You should consider using !important on rules which you want to

    * Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning
    @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */
    * Some possible accessibility enhancements:
    * Make all the default font sizes 20 pt:
    * font-size: 20pt !important
    /* Global UI font */
    font-size: 6pt !important;

  • Change Font Size inside a message

    The font size inside an e-mail is too small for my old eyes.
    I can change the font size for menus/titles in Settings/Display (it is now set to 10) but that has no impact inside of a message.
    Any chance there is an option that I am missing.  Pinch to zoom is not a workable alternative.
    Thanks!

    I'm in my 30s and it is a problem to me already indeed. I think Opera Mini had the same issue in past versions, it is probably the px/pt ratio that is too low for the HTML viewer in the messages app. :-(
    A mere "!important" CSS rule should do the trick but unfortunately users cannot do that.

  • How is the font size calculated in pixel sized documents?

    Hello to all,
    I am working with Illustrator CS4 on a web design. In the document setup, I set the size to 1000*1600 pixels. Then, I tried to add some text in font size 12 pt. The font appears *very* small. My objective was to use the same font size settings in my Illustrator file as I will later do in the HTML/CSS coding. How do I get Illustrator to scale the fonts in the same way as the browser does - i.e. a 12 pt text in the browser has the same size as a 12 pt text in Illustrator? Infact, I am looking for a setting where I can define the resolution of text size calculation.
    Best regards
    Joerg

    Illustrator is a print-oriented, object-based vector drawing program, not a web-oriented, pixel-based raster painting program.
    Illustrator's ruler is designed to represent real-world measure, not counts of pixels.
    A pixel is not a measure. Pixels have no real-world measure.
    Therefore, when Illustrator's ruler pretends to represent "pixels," it has to assign some real-world scale to them. It defaults to the measure of a point. A point is a real-world measure.
    Similarly, a computer's operating system has to decide how many screen pixels it will use to represent a real-world measure at 100% zoom.
    Mac OS defaults to using 1 pixel to represent 1 point. (72 PPI)
    Windows and web browsers default to using 1.33 pixels to represent 1 point. (96 PPI)
    So tell a browser to display 12 point type, and it will use 16 pixels to do that.
    Given Illustrator's default that 1 pixel measures 1 point at 100%, Illustrator uses about 9 pixels to render the cap height of 12 point Verdana.
    GIven the browsers' default that 1 point renders to 1.3 pixels, the browser uses about 12 pixels to render the cap height of 12 point Verdana.
    So given that Illustrator and the browser are going to use different numbers of pixels to rasterize 12 point type, how do you get a browser to use the same number of pixels to render 12 point Verdana as Illustrator does? Simple: Specify the type size in the HTML code by pixels, not by points. This is a screenshot of Internet Explorer on Windows displaying a web page which contains:
    A raster image of 12 point Verdana exported from Illustrator, using its default 72 PPI rasterization
    Live 12 pixel Verdana HTML text.
    Live 12 point Verdana HTML text.
    Inversely, there are other ways to work around Illustrator's 72 PPI default when you want to rasterize Illustrator type so that it looks the same as the same-point-size text in HTML.
    When using Save For Web & Devices, specifiy 133% instead of the default 100%.
    Scale the artwork to 133% before exporting via Save For Web & Devices using the default 100%
    When rasterizing, rasterize to 96 PPI instead of 72 PPI. (1.33 as many pixels)
    When exporting, export to 96 PPI instead of 72 PPI. (1.33 as many pixels)
    Or, do what I do: Get a decent screenshot utility. When I want to rasterize something from Illustrator that contains text that I want to appear online at the same scale that it appears to me when working in Illustrator, I simply zoom to 133% and take a screenshot.

  • Font size iMovie 6

    Hello folks:
    This is my first post. I'm working on just my second project in iMovie, so I hope I'm not asking something obvious, but I didn't see it in the documentation or in several pages of posts here.
    This is the first time I've experimented with written narration on a series of black screens. I'm trying to create a somber effect with the narrative transitions, but I notice that the fonts seem to be scaled automatically smaller when I write a longer sentence. This makes the text look very inconsistent as it passes.
    Another thing I'm noticing is that in the Centered Title feature where you can stack several lines of text that fade in and out, the first line is always a larger size font than succeeding lines, even though I haven't adjusted font size for succeeding lines.
    If I want to write just one sentence per clip, is there a rule of thumb that I can observe for maximum sentence length that will help ensure consistent font size from one clip to the next? And is there a way to stack sentences in a multi-line Centered Title so that the first line is the same size as the rest of the lines? Anyone else experiencing this problem?
    The font I'm using now is Futura medium. I've tried selecting succeeding lines and moving the font size slider and it doesn't work.
    Thanks for any help provided.

  • Problem with font size, not showing up as expected.

    I've been wrestling with this for a few weeks now, but surely must be getting closer to having it resolved. It's just a problem with font size on just this one page.
    http://www.kgngroup.net/logos_and_packaging.html
    I want the body text to be 10px, but after two weeks, have played with every conceivable way, altering body font size in CSS and in the document itself. I've viewing it in Safari but others on Windows machines tell me that it is out of whack also.
    My main problem is that I can change the font size to extremes but it still shows up as the same size in the browser (about 12px.) I know changes can be made because I can modify the wording and that does change online. It's just a problem with the font size. Oh, and in the third column, the one to the right, in Dreamweaver, the font looks like it is miniscule, cannot even be read, but in the browser, since the style11 is applied, all three columns look equal size.
    Not sure where to go from here. I just want to get the body font down to 10 pixels.
    TIA,
    Ken

    What would really help you in diagnosing issues such as this is to install the Firebug add-in for Firefox (as suggested in the earlier thread).
    Firebug shows you visually what CSS rules apply to whatever element you click on the screen.
    In this case, you have a confusion of CSS font sizes cascading on top of each other and that's confused again by mixing units for no real reason. .style11 is unnecessarily applied to lots of individual <p> tags. Remove those classes and delete the rule.
    e.g.
    The tiny font in the RHS column is affected first by
    .style8 {
    font-size: 0.5em;
    affecting the <td> then by
    .style11 {font-size: 75%}
    affecting the <p> tag.
    End result = tiny text (approx 2px).
    In these cases of mass confusion, my approach is to strip out all font sizing from the CSS and start over.
    Avoid %. Use px.
    Apply font sizing rules logically starting from the <body> tag downwards.
    That'll give you a solid baseline without weird effects.
    Ah, I find your answer worth repeating.
    Very cool that you have diagnosed so well and spelled it out here.
    I will get the Firefox add-on you mention, plus, print out this response and follow it like a recipe.
    It makes perfect sense and you have saved me from the 'clutter' of being wound up in too many directions with this because I could not make all of the connections that you have done here. I appreciate your help very much.
    Thank You,
