B4J Question Change default text sizes?

[agraham]

I think I know the answer to this (it's No) but is there any way of changing the default text sizes for controls? They seem to be the same (14) as for B4A which makes the minimum size for Buttons, amongst others, too large and visually intrusive. A value of 12 looks much better.

at least u can select multiple controls in the views tree and then filter the perperties by size and set all together.
the default properties as ini file would be nice.
and a other wish i had:

You can try an external css file that contains

.root { -fx-font-size: 12px; }

But ALL text is affected even inside textareas etc.

You can try an external css file

You are addressing the totally ignorant here. What should the file be called, and where would I put it?

 

[Daestrum]

You can call it what you want but suffix is css ( below mine is called fontsize.css)
It can be anywhere mine is just in my temp folder but should be in the app directories.

MainForm.Stylesheets.Add(File.GetUri("c:/temp", "fontsize.css"))

Thank you.I'll try that. Do I put it before or after LoadLayout?

 

[Daestrum]

I don't think it matters before or after loadlayout, but I would suggest before mainform.show

 

[agraham]

Thanks. I'll play with that tomorrow.

This will set the text size to most controls:

For Each x As B4XView In MainForm.RootPane.GetAllViewsRecursive
   x.TextSize = 10
