Calculating the given amount of play for:
Single text field, multi-line text field, edit field for text field, and button with text.
Definitions:
Font size: Character size (font size in pixels)
Y-dimension: Size of the graphical symbol (in pixels)
X-dimension: Width of a character

General recommendations for
text fields
(you can find info in the online help for
the first version of Web Editor)
We recommend using text fields exceeding the size displayed in the Editor by up
to 20%. To determine the text field length, you can also consult the following table
of the min. and max. X-dimension.
General recommendations for the
Y-dimension
in proportion to the font size and
format
Basic rule
: The text should be INSIDE the contours.
For buttons and edit fields, a shadow of 2 pixels is added (to the
inside
of the
button contours and to the
outside
of the edit fields).
If the text is too large for the edit field, it is overlaid by the border and the 3D
shadow.
