Is there a possibility to automatically resize the text of a button? make it “responsive” to the size of the button? Thank you ---

The problem is that the key is set in percentage to fit all the screens while the text has a fixed depth, so I was looking for a method or to automatically wrap the text or resize it ---

I haven’t found a way to dynamically resize the text size yet. Hopefully Thunkable can add a percentage property like width/height. ---

> [@jian](#): > > I haven’t found a way to dynamically resize the text size yet. Just to be clear you can dynamically resize the text size by setting the FontSize property of the button using the `'from Button set FontSize to'` block. What we don’t currently have is a way to set that FontSize to a percentage or to get the size of the button, which would allow you to compute the FontSize to match the button size. -Mark ---

One workaround will be to set the button fontSize to the percentage of the button Width or Height. On screen initialized, `from Button set FontSzie to` `from Button get Width` \* percentage. ---

Use the block that you tell me that I set a size in any case of the font, the problem is that this device to device failure and between ios and android, you should be able to calculate, starting from a certain size, the optimal size for the screen in use, is there a block that will return the screen resolution in use? if we think that a trivial equivalence solves our problem ---

There is no beautiful block for determining the screen resolution, but there is an example of obtaining information using a web service on the scrSystemInfo screen.

@ACTech, As soon as I can, I try to study the example you posted to me. Thank you ---

Hi everyone, I’ve done a method can help you to get the right font size for you device (is not responsive). You need to know the right size you need for 2 devices (for example a cellphone and a tablet). Now you need to interpolate or extrapolate depending on each on. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/c/c/cc21b58c1f8c8e8b65069734c9df646ce2a81355.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/d/e/de20583251208f012c3e0b7c24cae7559609a266.png) Now just have to assign the variable to the font size tex or multiply by other number to change it. ---
