Wondering if I'm missing something basic and if someone could give me a pointer or two ?
Still pretty new to LiveCode and typically using a Mac running Bootcamp and Windows XP to do the majority of my development (I grew up with Win, recently moved to a Mac, installed Bootcamp/Win XP on it to give me some 'comfort' / familiar ground to revert to whilst enabling me to use older apps (paintshop etc) as and when I need to), however, with all the best intentions (blah, blah..) I found myself using Win XP on a Mac pretty much full time... and so LC was installed as a Win product...
This weekend, I decided to bite the bullet (having become a little less scared of LC
) ) and install LC on the Mac partition where I now intend to stay ! Well that was (and remains) the idea...First and immediate issue though - upon loading my existing (Bootcamp/XP created) 'app' into the Mac LiveCode IDE, I note that pretty much all my text appears too large and requires a font reduction to suit the existing field / button sizes... All was OK in the Win XP LiveCode IDE but... hmmm... If I then modify my text to suit the Mac IDE, save my code and re-open the app in Win (Bootcamp and Parallels) I have text that is now too small !!! Grrr... (Just for info, I was using the Arial and Comic Sans fonts)
I haven't yet actually transferred anything to a mobile device but that now also worries me !
Am I doing something wrong or... Maybe, my selection of the 'Comic Sans' font is a mistake (for numerous reasons
) If so, Is there a list of 'standard' cross-platform fonts I can use ? Just a thought !Help please ? ? Any and all would be much appreciated !
Tia.
Regards.
