Controls size after upgrade

[ghini]

Hello to all,
since I use ASP.NET AJAX UI v 2016.2.607 I found that web controls are larger and with more padding. I thought it was due to the new Skins Bootstrap but the controls remain large even with the old skin Metro or Default. Depends on what?

This becomes a problem when I have to update a Visual Studio 2015 Project to the new version of Telerik controls 2016.2.607. The layout is compromised by the new size of the controls.

I attach a JPG that demonstrates the problem

Thanks so much

Hello,

This is probably related to the elastic capabilities of the controls when RenderMode==Lightweight and the lack of font on the page. You can read how the controls work with fonts here: http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/general-information/controlling-visual-appearance/fonts.

I suggest adding a rule similar to the following:

body {
    font-size: 14px;
    font-family: "Segoe UI", Arial, Sans-serif;
}

or the following to fall back to the 12px font-size the Classic mode used:

body {
    font-size: 12px;
    font-family: "Segoe UI", Arial, Sans-serif;
}
