Editor Font Size

[Raymond Dillon]

I have a font size of 17 set on XAML for the placeholder and text . 

Placeholder font size is OK but when I begin to type the font size increases and is too big. 

Is the size of 17 translated into a bigger size internally within the editor? 

Note a standard editor control of font size 17 is the size that is expected.

I've tried this with other sized too. 

e,g 

 DefaultFontSize="4"

 PlaceholderFontSize="4"

DefaultFontSize is always a point or 2 bigger than Placehilkde

OK additional bug. I have my editor in a poup and When I type it's a small font. When I close the popup and re open the font is big. I can open the popup from other places in the app but basically any 2nd open of the editor the font is large. 

This is only on iOS

Hi Raymond,

 

We have fixed the reported issue and included the issue fix in our latest weekly NuGet release update version 33.2.5, which is available for download at nuget.org.

 

NuGet Version: 33.2.5

 

Root cause:

The root cause of issue the placeholder text is styled using direct CSS (font-size: 14px), while the RichTextEditor content is rendered using HTML font tags, and these different rendering approaches can cause slight visual size differences even with the same pixel value.

 

We appreciate your support and patience. Please feel free to contact us if you need any further assistance.
