TextModel and TextInputFieldModel font-size bug?

164 posts

When I create an interface in Spec with TextModel or TextInputFieldModel, the font-size is tiny. Same behaviour in both Windows and Linux. Is this a bug or have I missed something important?

Did you tried with morph?

Because for me I would say it happens more at a Morphic level

Yes - thanks.

Seems the model is based on PluggableTextFieldMorph - and PluggableTextFieldMorph new openInWindow gives the same tiny font. Must be due to a default font size somewhere. But isn't atha bug in itself? Shouldn't it default to the standard text size of the interface theme?

Do you change the fonts in your preference scripts?

For sure, the default font size should be big enough.
Now we have to know if it comes from you or not :P

I think I'm using a completely vanilla Pharo 3. Haven't changed a thing:

I confirm this issue using a vanilla Pharo 3.

PluggableTextFieldMorph new openInWindow

If you comment last line here it works

PluggableTextFieldMorph>>initialize

    textMorphClass := TextMorphForFieldView.
    super initialize.
"    self beDecrypted"

which makes me think. Why #beDecrypted? Are text morphs encrypted by default?

If not we are wasting cycles there. To me it sounds like you should decrypt when something was encrypted, not just in case.

However that does not resolve the issue with TextInputFieldModel.
