Scaling the text in a timer in a responsive title

For responsive titles, you can conveniently scale the text within a timer. This is helpful when adjusting how the text in a timer appears within the different device views for responsive titles. Scaling the text creates an override of the default responsive inheritance. (The text scaling controls are disabled on the desktop view since you cannot create overrides in that view. Additionally, the labels in fields will change colors to reflect the current override values for each device view).

For more information about building responsive titles, see Working with responsive content.

The current scaling factor and size of the font are displayed. Use this information if you plan on adding similar text blocks to the page.

Scaling the text will not affect the displayed value in the Text Style group. The Text Style value reflects the base value for the timer. If the base value is changed, that change will apply across all views and the scaling will be canceled.

To scale the text:

  1. Select the timer that you want to change.

  2. In the work area, select one of the responsive views other than desktop.

  3. On the Properties ribbon, drag the slider or use the appropriate plus or minus button in the Text Scale group to scale the text in the current view. The values increase or decrease in 10% increments. For example, to increase the text size, drag the slider arrow to the right. The scaling factor (applied to the base) and the resulting effective font size are adjusted accordingly.

The text is changed for the current view. Additionally, the scaling values are inherited to the phone views if the current view is a tablet view.
