refreshing does fix the problem, but I can't guarantee that other users
will be so forgiving
I can appreciate that. Unfortunately, I don't enough about the root cause
to recommend a reliable fix that works on IE8. :(
Unfortunately, I need this to work on IE systems. Should I perhaps
Thanks for your considered response, Scott. Hopefully someone can
suggest a way to force a refresh upon opening.
You asked about IE9... I can upgrade the computer I'm using, but I'm
intending to make this TW availabe to multiple users, many of whom are
TW novices using government supplied
Thank you Scott. Yes, refreshing does fix the problem, but I can't
guarantee that other users will be so forgiving. I notice that Eric's
nestedSliderPlugin has some code specifically for IE... something
about clipping problems? Interesting also that IE8 is singled out
as being a bit problematic
However, I have been unable to sort out the problem...
instead, the I have discovered something else... it doesn't happen
when animations are turned off! Something in the pushing animation
sequence is playing with the fonts! Any ideas?
Could you specify what unable to sort out the problem
When EnableAnimations is on and I try to open a slider, the text is
difficult to read, no matter what font it is in. (It looks like text
in a .jpeg or .gif which has then been reduced in size.) This doesn't
occur when animations are off, and it doesn't occur when the slider's
default setting is
Thank you to everyone who has helped. I have played with
the .sliderPanel values and this certainly does change the fonts in
the sliders. However, I have been unable to sort out the problem...

The text inside the slider is wrapped in a style called .sliderPanel. If
the slider is in the main menu area on the left, you can modify #mainMenu
.sliderPanel to change the displays, and if it's in the right-hand sidebar
area, you can change it with #sideBarOptions .sliderPanel or
This can be done via CSS. If you inspect a TW document with FireBug or
Opera DragonFly, you'll see the class which the content of slider has.
As I can see, it's sliderPanel. Now try the corresponding CSS:
.sliderPanel { font-family: ...; font-size: ...; ... }
(first check whether this works,
Thanks for your reply, Hans. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with
Firebug and I haven't changed any of the default fonts, so I assume
that all users are subjected to this weird phenomenon. Perhaps it is
as simple as adding a few lines to the styleSheet. Can anyone suggest
a solution? Original
Ah, sorry I didn't read your OP closely enough to get that.
If you use Firebug to see what classes the text is getting assigned, you
should be able to override that formatting in StyleSheet, or even search in
your .html for the offending code.

Hi Joel
NestedSlidersPlugin preserves the font if a ^width^ is used;
+++^75%^[Click here to learn more about Tiddlywiki.|(Click again to
close)] tiddler [[AboutTiddlyWiki]] ===
but this causes the transcluded tiddler to float above and hide the
main body of text... I want it to push down!
Mans, thanks for your speedy reply... unfortunately it didn't work.
Your suggested code produced a floating tiddler that was 75% of the
width of the [Click here to learn more about Tiddlywiki] string!
Try:

No, Hans, The exclamation marks in NestedSlider only change the appearance
of the link to the tiddler. I want to change the content of the tiddler
that is being transcluded... or more to the point, I want to know why the
font for the transcluded tiddler does change, because I dont want it to!
