Grow to Fit and Shrink to Fit text scripture issue?

[theot59]

Hi, first of all I want to say thank you for the positive response regarding the wrap text issue in Scripture that was implemented in beta version 1.5.6.
But now I think I’ve found another issue: Grow to Fit and Shrink to Fit text seem to still have some bugs.

For example, here I’m using Grow to Fit for Scripture on the main output, but in some verses the text actually becomes smaller like this. I’m not sure why this happens, since I’m still using the same Grow to Fit setting.

Then about Shrink to Fit… honestly, I’m not really sure how Shrink to Fit is supposed to work in FreeShow. At first, I thought Shrink to Fit means the font size stays at the user’s chosen size (for example, I set it to "60"), and only when the text is too long and gets cut off by the text box, the font size will shrink so it fits. Right?

But for some reason, the font size keeps changing. Sometimes it becomes too big, sometimes too small, even though the text should still fit inside the box and the font size should stay normal ("60")

I'll have to try to recreate this, because it worked fine in my testing. Does it work fine directly from the drawer?

[vassbo]

Okay, I see if I select multiple verses it does not scale properly.

try genesis 1:20...

is that a bug?

If I do Genesis 1:20 it works as expected, but when I select multiple verses it's incorrect:

Yeah, the issue also appears randomly in some verses, so you’ll need to look for it.

@vassbo Update on 1.5.6 Beta-2 : The problem still exists in the latest beta version, but I’ll try using a different template as a work around.

However, I found a clue that might be useful: the bug shows up when I add box-decoration-break: clone; in the CSS.
Without box-decoration-break: clone;:

With box-decoration-break: clone;:

I need to use box-decoration-break: clone; because without it, the left and right padding on the second line and the following lines doesn’t match like the first line.


Thank you for your hard work. I know this is hard because the issue isn’t on your side.
