Hello, I have just installed Layout 2026 and I cannot reduce the font size below 8. My entire title block is ruined… My font was in size 4. Do you have any solutions?

Use 25 until this bug gets fixed. Can people read 4pt type?

Yes, Information about my plan presentation. Date, plan version, creator, etc.

[image] bmike: Can people read 4pt type? on a screen you can zoom in. on paper, that’s 1,4mm so no.

Try it, and you will see that 4pt is easy to read. :slightly_smiling_face:

[image] bmike: Can people read 4pt type? 6pt is the minimum recommended by printers! And I’d still suffer!

[image] Samuel.Ge: Do you have any solutions? Use the Text > Bigger / Smaller function. You can go down to zero pt!

In Microsoft Word the smallest font offered is 8pt.

I’m seeing the same issue with the font size. Here’s a label that was originally made at 6 pt. When clicking on it the size instantly gets changed to 10 pt. I can select down to 8 pt but I cannot set it back to 6 pt. (It shouldn’t be changing in the first place.) [font size] @adam , any feedback?

Check other fonts. Comic Sans MS goes down to a 6pt. although it would go smaller in the past. also if you use the text pulldown/smaller it goes even smaller. I have no Idea if that will get reformatted.

This is definitely a bug with our new Qt UI implementation. We are looking into this right now. The text area should also definitely be editable which it is not currently.
