I hear you, although I'd be already quite happy if box sizes would be consistent across platforms in Pd-vanilla. If I'm not mistaken, boxes for font size 10 increased when switching from Debian Wheezy to Jessie and from Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04 without the code of Pd having changed. So, in order to get the same box size for font size 10, I change the font metric from '7 13' to '7 12'. On Macs, it seems it has been always consistent. In Windows, Pd uses the same box size for font size 10 as long as the Deja Vu font is _not_ installed. When Pd uses DejaVu, box size for font size 10 is increased again. Somehow Pd-extended managed to make it consistent across platforms, but I shouldn't complain, it seems a complex matter and I understand very little of it. Roman
