When I create an application on my laptop it compiles and renders just fine. If I compile the page and put it on a server to host it, it still renders just fine on multiple computers.
However, if I transfer the code to my desktop and run it on my desktop the size of all the fonts is all messed up. Everything is MUCH bigger. As you can probably guess, this messes up my layout considerably.
On the desktop machine I am using the GWT browswer…
Any ideas on why the same code would render differently on two different machines?
If I compile the code on the desktop and put it on a server it looks like the laptop version (small).
Essentially I have this:
Laptop Hosted: small Server: small Desktop Hosted: large Server: small I have checked this against IE, firefox and safari.
Why does hosted mode look different?
Thanks!
Because you have different default font sizes and/or monitor dpi settings on the two machines?
AIUI the GWT standard styles just sets font size to ‘small’, which will be relative to the default font size set in the browser. Either set the fonts to a measurement in pixels or, better, use a more liquid layout that can cope with a range of font sizes.
