Dear all,
I have a beautiful B4A App but I have this issue:

Please see attached picture showing three parcial-screen-shots corresponding to three different devices with different manufacturer and resolution.

The issue: Text Scale not working on SONY XPERIA Z

In order to try to understand the situation I'm using object position and size by program, like this:

Dim LOCAL as Label
Rx=GetDeviceLayoutValues.Height/1280
Ry=GetDeviceLayoutValues.width/800
'Object position working fine:
LOCAL.Top= 3 * Ry
LOCAL.Height = 60 * Ry
LOCAL.Width =236 * Rx
LOCAL.Left =13 * Rx

'and finally the TextSize that FAILS on SONY Xperia Z
LOCAL.TextSize = 24*Ry

I do not understand why LOCAL.TextSize propriety is not working on SONY XPERIA Z and the Label textsize is not changing the size of the label text!!!

I'm appreciating your comments on it!

It works great now, Klaus!!!.

Now, Font size on Samsung and on SONY XPERIA have exactly the same look. Well, it looks smaller but I know how to fix it

Thank you very much.

PD: Also thanks to all people tried to help me!
