[Solved] Toolbar DropDown text size too small in IE, not Firefox

[Chris]

Hi All,
I am currently integrating the RadEditor Prometheus into my app and I have run into one problem, in IE the text that reads  the font size or font name (and all the text on all other dropdowns) is too small. A CSS check has it coming up as 1px, but when I hover over it it switches to 11px. It appears the non-hover text is using a wrapper CSS class, despite the fact that the non-hover version of the class is defined just fine in the CSS file. In Firefox the text size is fine at 11px, with or without hover.

Has anyone else encountered this or know of a workaround?

Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,

The problem is most likely due to some global css class that is overriding the editor's dropdown header text. Please, review your css classes and see which one is causing the problem.

If you are not able to solve the problem, please open a support ticket and send a sample runnable project along wih the css classes that demonstrates the problem. I will examine it and try to provide a solution soon.

I am seeing the same Issue, in Firefox the Font Name header displays the correct size but in IE 7 it is only 5px wide.  Sometimes on first time into the page IE will display it correctly but when you hover over, it shrinks back to the 5px width.  I have tried removing my CSS file so nothing can be interfering with the RadEditor.

Was this issue resolved or is this a bug.

Hi Ben,

Could you please put the following class in the page with RadEditor for ASP.NET AJAX

    <style>
    .rade_dropdown
    {
        width: 70px !important;
        font-size: 10px !important;
    }
    </style>

and see whether you are still experiencing this problem.

If the problem still persists, please open a support ticket and send a sample runnable project that demonstrates the issue.

That fixed the problem but it has a strange side affect. 

Now even though the drop down box is more than big enough, the size drop down text shows up as "S...".  But the font name drop down shows up fine, it says "Font Name"

Hi Ben,

Could you please, tell us whether the editor is initially invisible and after that loaded / displayed with Ajax? If this is your scenario, my suggestion is to upgrade to the latest version of Telerik.Web.UI.dll in which the problem should be fixed.

If the problem, still persists, please open a support ticket and send a sample working project that demonstrates the issue. We will examine the project and try to provide a solution.
