[Dsg-rich] RICH Hardware Interlock System screen in clascss - text cut off in labels

[Nathan Baltzell]

Hi Tyler,

Yes, some things are overlapping/cutoff on that screen (at least on RHEL7).  I can’t tell you an appropriate font size - depends on what you set the widget size to be.  In general, good to set the widget/font sizes with some headroom.  You can also try the "auto size" option for labels.
