Any thoughts why when i look at the display via wysiwyg designer i see the numbers on the buttons but when i compile and run the app they don't show on my phone?

i do have a variant for the phone size that make some changes.
i tried adjusting horizonal and vertical alignments...adjusted the font sizes....but can't get the numbers to show...

any thoughts?
thanks

Difficult to say without looking at either your code or the designer script code, one thing you can try is changing the textcolor property to a darker color.

Walter...thanks for your responses...i just increased the button sizes a little and moved them around and the text showed on the larger buttons...just not sure why couldn't see the text when the buttons were smaller...i have a label with similar text that shows no problem and the label box is way smaller than the button...thanks again

That means your Font size is bigger than the Button's size.
