Also, is there some way I could tell if my Activity was running on an XO and adjust the font size accordingly?

It seems that if you DON'T explicitly set a font in your Sugar Activity it will look identical in sugar-emulator and on an XO.  Unfortunately if you *do* set a font what looks like a reasonable sized font in the development environment will be a MUCH LARGER font on the XO.  My goal with Read Etexts was to give a text view with the default font and allow the users to make it larger or smaller, just like Read has the Zoom In and Zoom Out feature.  Now there does not seem to be a way to find out what font a text viewer is currently using.  All you can do, from what I have seen, is to set it to a font and then change the font you have set.  I wanted to set it to "sans 12".  Looks good in sugar-emulator, ridiculously large on the XO. </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> Hmm, setting a fixed font size of 10 should give you the same font size as used anywhere in the UI. </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">Any insight on this problem would be appreciated.  I tried the following code from one of Tomeu's postings: from sugar.graphics import style pango.FontDescription("sans %d" % style.zoom(72)) </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> We don't need to scale ourselves any more because Pango is already doing it for us. In the last soas image I have (almost one month old), the XO has a very small font size, not sure why but I will try a more recent one.
