Android Question device characters size

[marcick]

Hi all,
I have choosen a fontsize that fit ok in my labels.
But some devices like Samsung allow the user to change the character size in screen options menù. If the user do it, some label text in my app no longer fits in their space.
Can it be avoided ?

Font sizes is one of the trickiest thing to compromise with. Search the forum for keywords like fontsize, autotextlabel, smartstring etc... That can enlight you but there is no simple "one solution fits all"

would be useful, at least, to detect if the user has changed system setting enlarging fonts.
I'm having a look to smartstring, thanks
Marco
