Re: [flexcoders] Embedded Fonts Cause Issue with DataGrid Headers

[JesterXL]

Of course; Arial and/or Verdana can be measured reasonably so at a specific size.  If I were in a hurry to get some technical data thing to work, the last thing I'd worry about is supporting Papyrus at 36 point size....   There are already significant challenges measuring fonts to includ them in sizing, and to do so efficiently, ecspecially with something as text intensive as the DataGrid.   That said, you first.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Brendan Meutzner To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, July 31, 2006 1:22 PM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Embedded Fonts Cause Issue with DataGrid Headers Hey Jesse, I'll try to build up my stamina to have a look tonight again... however, does the fact that it only affects a particular font size make any sense?  Then again, I guess the issue doesn't make sense from the start...
