I tried setting the textfont of this stack to the textfont of stack "home".
Still it returned empty when I put the textFont of any field in my stack.

I have users on XP and 7, so I think I will just loop through all the
fields in preOpenStack and set the appropriate textFont.  I'll report back
if it still looks weird.

XP's system font is "Tahoma".

Win7's system font is "Segoe UI".

just IDE -vs- standalone for Windows.


Roger, what did your users find? I find that one needs to explicitly set the text font and the text size in order to get readable text in a standalone in Windows 7 and 8. Of course, setting the text size means users' system settings, which may reflect their own needs and preferences, are overridden. I don't believe this is an acceptable default practice.

I have filed a bug, which seems to have not generated any interest from the devs, with a stack and a screenshot of that stack in the IDE alongside its built standalone, as well as the example Windows standalone. http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=10995
