Tab: Font Settings

Symbol: _visu_icon_font.png

Function: The tab provides settings for adapting the font and its size in the visualization according to the language. The settings apply to all visualizations of the application, including the Visualization Manager.

Table 35. Language Specific Font Settings

Language

Language which is created in the text lists of the project

Example: en, es, ja

Each language which is created in the project is managed in a column. All text lists, including those from integrated libraries, are scanned for this.



Table 36. Rows

Size factor

The factor affects the type size of all texts in the visualization.

Default: 1

If the factor is smaller than 1, this leads to a reduction of the type size. If the factor is 1, all texts are displayed unchanged as defined in Properties.

Font <number>

Font name with numbering

Example: Times New Roman

You can specify any number of fonts per language. To do this, click in the field below the language abbreviation to open a list box of installed language fonts.

In this way, you specify that this font is used for the respective language. Because not all fonts can be available depending on the device or browser, you have the option of specifying multiple fonts.

At runtime, the font is checked from top to bottom whether or not it is installed. The first installed font is applied in the display.

Red highlighting of a cell

The highlighted language no longer exists in the text lists of the project or the libraries.

This highlighting is not available at runtime.



Table 37. Buttons (right side)

_visu_icon_plus.png, _visu_icon_minus.png

Add or remove a font

_visu_icon_arrow_up.png, _visu_icon_arrow_down.png

Moves the selected font one line up or down

This determines the order in which the font is checked to see whether or not it is installed.



Context menu of a selected table row

Delete Language

The associated column is removed. This is advisable above all if settings in the column are highlighted in red.

Copy Language Settings

All settings in the column are copied to the clipboard.

Paste Language Settings

All settings in the column are overwritten with the values from the clipboard.

Table 38. General Font Settings

Automatic decrease of font size

standard icon: If the text to be displayed does not fit in the text field in the set format, then the font size is decreased automatically until the text fits completely in the text field.

Hint: This prevents a text from being truncated when changing to a language that needs more space. The requirement is that a font is available which has a sufficiently small font.
