As seen in these 2 images the tails of the letters g and y are getting cut off when using auto height.

3 lines

2 lines

I've tested this in Confluence but there's no problem with its font so I guess it must be font specific - I'm using HelveticaNeue_Lt.ttf.

Thanks.

PS Before I tested this in Confluence I did notice that it's plot textbox wasn't high enough to start with and letters were getting cut off anyway. Line 854 in DialogVideoInfo needs a height of 122 to fix this. Wink

Cool.

I'll report the other problem on trac tomorrow if no-one's replied before then.

I've never understood how auto height works. So in your screenshots, how do you keep the textbox from covering the controls below it? Grouplist?

Can´t reproduce on my side (Linux) or I am too stupid to notice Wink

You set a max height. So in my example it's 3 lines but as you can see when you only need 2 lines they're still getting cut off.

What font are you using? In Confluence (Roboto-Regular.ttf) it doesn't happen but in my skin (HelveticaNeue_Lt.ttf) is does.

Used the wip one you provided to me some days ago.

The letters g and y don't look cutoff for you then?

Strange as they're definitely getting cutoff on Windows and Android.

No obvious cutoff noticeable here. Will test again on OSX.

**mkortstiege** · 2015-01-17, 11:34

Looks good on OSX as well. Do I have to modify something to trigger this?

I'm pretty sure the version I sent you was using auto height for the textbox but if you could check DialogVideoInfo.xml that would be great, thanks.

**mkortstiege** · 2015-01-17, 12:04

Jep, just checked. My version is using auto height.

From that screenshot it seems you're running 16:10 whereas I'm running 16:9 - could that be the reason you're not seeing it?

Thanks.

EDIT: Tried running in 16:10 and the problem is still here on Windows and if I remove the auto height and replace with the max value used nothing is cutoff.

I've worked out why it's working for you for that movie and when it doesn't work - it cuts the tails off when the complete plot will fit in the textbox but not when it overflows as seen in this screenshot -

So if you could check again but with a smaller plot we could be getting somewhere.

Thanks.

EDIT: Also discovered that when using 'auto' for the textbox height the scrollbar is still visible even if you use <showonepage>false</showonepage> in it and the textbox is less than one page. Huh

I am finally able to reproduce. Will try to fix once i understood the font/texture voodoo ..
