[Question] InfoCard's Height?

from Sins Forums

Usually the Infocard's height adjust by text inside.

BUT, after modded the fonts and English.str, it's abnormal (Short and text stacked).

I've looked the window files, can't find anything related with Infocard's height.

Anyone can help me?

Woah, that has total thrown me off. So, the dimensions are wrong, or the position is wrong? When you say height, I thought you meant the dimensions of the info card, but that screen looks like it is the position of the info card that has changed.

It looks like the font itself is a bit large, and the yellow font actually looks like it goes below the "line" and that's what shrinks the spacing between lines. If you look really close, it actually looks like the heights of the characters put them below the '.' in your font, where with the English font they're nicely lined up.

It's just my guess, though.

Hi Annatar.
If I use a small size, such as Height:8, problem can be solved but I can't see the characters which like black points. (:(  (:(

What's the size in your screenshot? 12? 10?

I'm not sure what to tell you - the game probably wasn't designed with such characters in mind. :(

I find the problem of stacking. Not the "." BUT a "Space".
And Seems the height is another problem.
After Del all Space in sentence, No more stacked characters - good hand.
Some character can't be show - bad hand.
Here is a screenshot with no space in sentence.

I've finally find what's the problem.
When strings in chinese, a "space" make change a new line(Absolutely).
So, adjust "space" can solve all problem,.
Thanks for Annatar and Uzii's help.
