I use the upper left Tile Image Tags to display certain information about a particular row of data (content). But lately I’ve noticed that the size of font and (worse) the amount of the displayed text is so inconsistent that it makes those tags hard to use. I have relatively short Tags now being tr…

No, because every image in that Tile-set is the exact same dimensions. I process it all with Cloudinary so these are all 2:3 images of the exact same pixel size and quality… regardless of what the user uploads. I constrain and letterbox the images if they’re wider than 2:3, all those pages of text a…

I’ve never noticed different font sizes for the tags. What size tiles do you have? Do you have a screenshot? I’m curious.

[image] [image] [image] [image] [image]

What it is is that the tags are not proportional to the size of the tile/image. A full screen image tag uses the same dimensions as the 2-col tiles/cards. It’s an optical illusion that makes the tag appear smaller (I think) and it IS a bit disappointing. Also, captions on images need gradients. …

So like the first image… why does A Gray Divide have three dots after it?? Whereas a tag like Stick: The Skinny Hitman [3] is full. There isn’t even any text following A Gray Divide. That’s the full title.

No take a look at the differences in these Tags. They are indeed different font sizes. Take a look at Until Like X [2] just to the right of A Double Negative [7]. Totally different sizes. Or “A Gray Divide…” to the left of Ulfis Otrinne: Sacrifice [11] +4 More Today… which is smaller in font size. …

It’s all just terribly inconsistent. Some long, some short. Some bigger font, some smaller. Some truncated with dots, some not. I’ve been resisting placing this info from Cloudinary to save on Cloudinary credits, and love the instant labeling in glide without image processing, but this makes it hard…

That’s weird. I’ve never noticed that before. Haven’t used tags too much either. Could it have something to do with different image dimensions and the tag being applied to the image before the image is resized to fit the tile? Just a thought.

Mmm. Maybe Mark will have an answer.

While you’re looking can you also make them (and avatars/captions) clearer and easier to read? [image] Clearer captions on images Report a Bug Not really a bug, but its REALLY hard to read the caption on light images. Can the text be bigger and include the gradient under…
