Well, the text width required to display 60 characters per line depends on the font used. I tend to use very large fonts (20pt) and with fixed layout I am getting less than 60 characters. I think the right answer is 'proportional layout' that links the area size to the font and other visual components of the presentation. --Leo-- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
