Version 8.1.24 Perspective At First, PID Process View - Coordinate Container - Fixed; Template View - Coordinate Container - Fixed; But the process is too large , I want to adjust to different screens. Then I change PID Process View - Coordinate Container - Percent; Template View - Coordinate Container - Percent; aspectRatio set to its width and height. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/8/e/8e83fd082ae2801c7ca06eaf246cea55d249b35f.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/c/6/c6f6c6b28cf3a023ae45ef72b6c44f49974f2770.png) I find the Label in Process View can't adapt to size, same size; in Template View if it has label , it also can't adapt , it may not show full size and show scroll. So should I change the Process View coordinate fixed to percent ? Should I change the Template View coordinate fixed to percent or change it to Fixed? ---

The font size saga continues... Font size has always been the something Im _still_ yet to master, but what I would suggest you do is to look at using rem units for your font size instead of fixed pt or px, assuming that's what you've used. rem units relate back to the root font size, by default this is 16px. However, you can change this using css using a media query to change it based on the size of the screen. Therefore if the screen is large, 1rem might = 16px, but if small, 1rem might be 13px. > [@Useful CSS Stuff](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/useful-css-stuff/95414/34): > > cough I've gone back to rem.. face_with_crossed_out_eyes But defined media queries in the stylesheet to change the root fontsize based on resolution.. fwiw, this is what I've been testing with, and it seems to be holding up ok... /\* Default root font size (applies to all screen sizes unless overridden) \*/ html { font-size: 16px; /\* Base size: 1rem = 16px \*/ } /\* For small screens (e.g., mobile phones). Note this is larger than the tablet size otherwise it's too small on mobile\*/ @media sc… ---

I've started using a combination of rem and em units after reading through the linked post. a while back. ---

Will it ever end? I've got a site that's mostly using rem, but I loaded it up at home this weekend on my 5k\*2k screen, and wow. Found all the stuff that isn't using rem... 1 biggie - dock sizing.. gonna have to figure out how to do something there... as that 200px left dock gets really tiny... ---

Since I managed to at least get the Left & Right docs to a REM based size.. But bottom dock definitely doesn't play nicely.. interesting little trick they use to "close" the dock breaks it. Added an IDEA. [Docks - allow REM in sizing (width/height) | Voters | Inductive Automation](https://ideas.inductiveautomation.com/ignition-features-and-ideas/p/docks-allow-rem-in-sizing-width-height)
