[Solved] Can I change the Text size for TextInput

Questions about Thunkable
1

Would it be possible to add a block for the text size of the Text Box so that it could be increased/decreased by the user (maybe with a slider), the same as it is possible to do it for a label?

Would it be possible to add the Font Size for Top Tab and Bottom Tab Navigators? I feel the standard font size is too small (or maybe I did not see that it is possible to increase the size of the font?).
Thanks!
Daniel

Hi there, @danielemazza67b
Unfortunately,Thunkable X cannot change the text input font size by the block,when you said is it possible change the font size with the label,yes it does.

I’m not accurate to judge that change both of the navigators’ font size,prehaps is not possible yet.

Thunkable X can change the font size for Text Input by the block (and for Button, Label, Date Input and Time Input).

This a super-interesting workaround @actech thanks for sharing.

Just for the benefit of future readers, here are the blocks needed:

And it seems to work pretty well on iOS and Android:

Since this is a separate question about a separate component, would you mind posting it again in its own topic please @danielemazza67b?

Thanks!

Thanks for the great work around @actech
I’m using it but need to change the font size for the text input according to the length of text.
I found that using the blocks below gives me a problem because the text input records each keystroke of the return or done key as a character giving an incorrect reading for the length of the text.
Any help would be much appreciated. :grinning:

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.

Hi Stupid question on this - What is a “From” label… What does it mean…
This a very frustrating thing that must be quite easy to implement - and quick…
To Change font size in an input text dialog box…

Anyways - What is the From ;-D

The older version of Thunkable had blocks that said from Label set [property] to [value]. The current version has blocks that say set Label's [property] to [value. So for example, you can drag in a set Label's Text to block and change the drop-down menu from Text to Font Size.
