Maximum font size for auto-sized form text

You need to let the user select a maximum font size for automatically sized text. If most of your fields are set at 10pt type, but you have one field for which you want the text to resize automatically, it looks stupid if that cell contains a small amount of text that’s set at 16pt or whatever. If you could set the maximum font size to 10pt for that field, then the text would be consistent with the text in the other fields unless there is so much text that it needs to scale down.

Can anyone please advise?
Cheers

  • [AA7+] [Windows] Set default text size for "auto" setting...

    Good morning:
    I was wondering if it is possible to set the default font size or specify a maximum font size
    for the auto setting of the font size on a text field when using the auto setting?
    Currently, if the font size is set to "auto" it defaults to 12 pt. text if multiline is checked on the Options tab.
    If multiline is not checked on the Options tab, the font size will adjust to the height of the box.
    I would like to have the multiline checked, specify "auto" for the font size, but have the auto font size be no larger than 8 pts.
    It can go smaller than 8 pts. if there is too much text in the field, but should not be larger than 8 pts. because the other form fields are in 8 pt.
    If someone has any suggestions on how to achieve this, I would be most appreciative.
    Thanks!

    Thanks Jongware!
    I'm aware of the many different forums and I thought I was posting it in the Acrobat Scripting forum.
    That'll teach me to look where I post. I guess I'm the one that needs the glasses.
    Take care!

  • How to set different pointsize  (Font Size) for different text range in the single textframe.

    I have a one textframe in which i want to  set three different pointsize(font size) for three different text ranges. I have set different tag name for different text ranges . So How can I set different pointsize in the single texmframe.
    Please reply me if anyone is aware of it.
    Thanks,

    Jack,
    Extending Martti's post, you can create an XSLT that will add an element around the ASD2.1 part when you import the XML file into FrameMaker. Then FrameMaker's EDD can format this added element with a font different from the one used in the content element.

  • Increasing font size for texts

    Not possible in the stock sms message application. Perhaps one of the replacement sms apps in the Android Market does. Handcent SMS app or Go SMS app are available in the market.

  • Max font size on 'auto' size

    I've multiple lined text fields in the pdf document. I want the input to be resized if it exceeds (selected auto font size in properties) but I also want the first font size to be '10 pt'.
    When I select auto, it chooses the maximum font size to fit in the box, I want the upper limit to be fixed at 10 and it gets smaller if text exceeds the box size.
    How can I do that ?

    For multiline text fields, it seems the initial size is 12 when the font size is set to Auto. You don't have control over this, unfortunately.

  • Maximum font size script

    Howdy all!  Have a tricky question. Using LiveCycle ES 8.2
    Working on a form, I've got a pair of linked text fields (global data linked).
    These text fields are static in size, but I need the values typed into them to shrink when it fills up the visible area of the text field.  I can't set the value font size to 0pt from the start.  It makes the initial font size too big for the value.  The font size needs to remain at 16 pt until the value fills up the field's visible area, then it needs to switch over to 0pt (hence triggering a full event).
    I've tried using a full event with the following code;
    this.font.size = "0pt";
    But it won't fire.  I wonder if there is a limitation to the what the full event can trigger.  I can use the change event or even the exit event if I have to.
    I've also tried a calculate event with the following script:
    if (this.rawValue.length > 48) {
         this.font.size = "0pt";
    else {
         this.font.size = "16pt";
    But this did not fire as well.  And yes, I have the scripting set to Javascript...not Formcalc.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Using ES3 and just a 0 font initially (with all scripting removed) I get the following, for a short name;
    Which seems about the right.
    And for a long name
    My version of your form is here https://sites.google.com/site/livecycledesignercookbooks/home/bizcard_form.1.pdf?attredire cts=0&d=1
    There have been some changes since ES8, including a default font size added to the form properties, but not sure that is a factor as the largest font used in this sample is still smaller than the default.
    Is this what you are seeing?

  • Maximum line size for OO ALV

    Hi,
    1) What is the maximum line size for OO ALV?
    Or in the other way round, how is the maximum column size for OO ALV when i using the method below:
      DATA: r_grid TYPE REF TO cl_salv_form_layout_grid.
      CREATE OBJECT r_grid.
      r_grid->create_text(
          row     = 2
          column  = 2
          text    = sy-mandt ).
    2) Another question, how to change the below time format:
    223801 -> 22:38:01?
    When I try to use sy-uzeit to display the header in ALV like below:
      CREATE OBJECT r_grid.
      r_grid->create_text(
          row     = 2
          column  = 2
          text    = sy-uzeit ).
    The ALV will be displaying 223801. How i can convert to format 22:38:01 and display it in ALV?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    For your second qn.,try by declaring an extra field of type character of length 10 in the structure you are using for ALV.
    After that ,after you appended the records,just try the follg...
    loop at itab into wa.
    concatenate f10(2) ':' f12(2) ':' f1+4(2) into f2.
    modify itab from wa transporting f2 index sy-tabix.
    endloop.

  • Is there a way to increase the font size for the "songs" and "artists" lists in the new music app for iPad 2 (iOS 5)? It is too small for me.

    It would depend on your definition of "Fix"
    Your iPod touch running OS 4.2 has a ZOOM feature which will enable you to see the screen more clearly.
    To turn Zoom on or off got to:
    Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom and tap the Zoom On/Off switch.
    _To Zoom in or out_:
    Double-tap the screen with three fingers. By default, the screen is magnified 200 percent. If you manually change the magnification (by using the tap-and-drag gesture, described below), iPod touch automatically returns to that magnification when you zoom in by double-tapping with three fingers.
    Increase magnification: With three fingers, tap and drag toward the top of the screen (to increase magnification) or toward the bottom of the screen (to decrease magnification). The tap-and-drag gesture is similar to a double-tap, except you don’t lift your fingers on the second tap—instead, drag your fingers on the screen. Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single finger.
    _Move around the screen_:
    When zoomed in, drag or flick the screen with three fingers. Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single finger so that you can see more of the screen. Hold a single finger near the edge of the display to pan to that side of the screen image. Move your finger closer to the edge to pan more quickly. When you open a new screen, Zoom always goes to the top-middle of the screen.
    _Large Text_:
    Large Text lets you make the text larger in alerts, and in Calendar, Contacts, Mail, Messages, and Notes. You can choose 20-point, 24-point, 32-point, 40-point, 48-point, or 56-point text.
    Set the text size: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility, tap Large Text, then tap the text size you want.
    I hope this has helped a little - other than this option I think it pretty much is what it is.
    BTW - This information can be found on page 208 of the iPod Touch iOS 4.2 Users Guide.
    Best wishes..

  • Change font Size for Lock Screen Message

    In system preferences Security & Privacy you are able to set a lock message for the lock screen. Is there a way to change the Font Size or even the color of the message in Mavericks?

    I was able to set the font size for all the text on the envelope by pressing the Set button for the font. The size is on the right side of the dialog box. If it is not working for you, try choosing another font, and then going back to the one you want.

  • Set custom font size for one column

    hey guys! I am trying to decrease the font-size for one column based on an lov and used
    style="font-size:8pt"It does not work though! Do you have a hint?
    brgds,
    seb

    Hello Seb,
    >> Might it be important whether the column is of type "...based on lov"?
    If by "...based on lov" you mean “Display as Text (based on LOV, does not save state)” the answer is yes. This type of column is not treated as an updatable column (the implementation is by using a regular <td> tag and not the <input> tag) so the Apex engine ignores the Element Attributes field.
    As far as I can tell, this column can only be styled in the query itself (and you need to implement the LOV yourself).
    Another option is to use a select list and disabled it, but the column will appear in gray, and with small font size it doesn’t look that good.

    Arie.

  • Adjust font size for notes?

    is it possible to adjust the font size for the .txt file to be read in the 'notes' folder in 'my computer'. i have synced it to my ipod but becuase of is size and the way the info is portrayed the width is too narrow on ipod thus getting a 'spill' onto the next line. is there anyway to save it as it is in its original .txt file. thank you
    Alan

    In the text note include some html code. html (hypertext markup language) is what is used to display this web page.
    You can Google "html font size" to learn more about it.
    Create a text note.
    The very first line of the text note should be
    <font size =-1>
    This will make the font 1 size smaller (it's a minus 1). Make it a + (plus) sign to make it larger.
    Add the rest of your note.
    The last line of your text note should be
    </font>
    to return everything to normal.

  • Increasing Font Size for Reading pdfs

    Is there a way to boost the font size (beyond the double-tap) for reading pdfs on the iphone? Something like setting the font size for email perhaps?
    Thanks.

    This is only slightly true. You can zoom in a little when viewing a PDF, but soon you reach some iPhone limit and the page gets larger as you exapnd, but then when you release it drops back. Unlike with Safari on a web page where you can make it as big as you want (well at least really really big).
    This is VERY annoying (I think I'll submit a bug about it actually) as I can't get the text big enough to easily read it. Why is there a limit in the first place?

  • Default font size for a value in a table in Answers

    Hi,
    I am trying to set a default font size for a column of table view in Answers, so that when I create a new report, this default font size is used. Can someone please point me to the file where I can make this change?
    Thanks

    Well if you have a tag like this:
    element.style {
    background-color:#FFFFFF;
    font-size:9px;
    It means it's coming from the formatting in the request in Answers...not from a style sheet! You'll note in Firebug, that there's actually no *.css file mentionned. I.e. example from here:
    element.style {
    color:#00AF00;
    .OORD {views.css (line 1574)
    text-align:right;
    .PTE {views.css (line 1077)
    background-color:#FFFFFF;
    First part element.style comes from my conditional formatting and doesn't reference any css file
    The other two elements are from the views.css which control my pivot table.
    See the difference?
    Cheers,
    C.

  • Onscreen font size for "spell check" and "font"

    How do I increase the onscreen font size for "spell check" and "font"? I just tried to spell check a document and the font size was so small I can't see what it says. Also, when you click on 'font' to change it, I wish the list of fonts was larger so I could see it clearer. I have pretty good vision so it's not that, it's just the size of the font....it must be at least 6! Thanks for your help.

    Hi, Diane. I don't know what sort of display you're using, but it sounds like you have a flat LCD display. At any resolution lower than its maximum, a flat-screen LCD display is always blurry, and the lower the resolution, the blurrier it is. This is because unlike a CRT display, an LCD has a fixed number of physical pixels in it that can't be changed. If you instruct it to "pretend" it has a smaller number of larger pixels by setting it for a lower resolution, each of the "pretend" pixels has to be made up of several real pixels instead of just one, and no pixel can be (for example) half white and half blue: a pixel is an indivisible unit that is always all one color. So the only way the hardware can use several pixels to represent one larger one is to gradate the colors of those pixels as best it can to approximate the intended image, and that inevitably spreads the gradation out — which is exactly what blurring is. This is just an inbuilt property of LCD displays, not a defect that needs to be (or can be) fixed. The solution is to buy a display that works well for you at its highest resolution — which will probably mean a lower-resolution display than you have now.
