Comment Re:Font resizing (Score 1) 76
I totally agree that the font size should change when resizing, that's what the users are asking for, and that's what they should get.
However, it's the line height that I'd like to keep static for certain situations - for instance when you have text you want to fit into a given image. If we could resize background images via CSS, this wouldn't be a problem, and we could just set up the page (or portions thereof) to scale the way Opera does.
Sometimes the design lends itsself to holding a given line of text in place, rather than stretching it downward (say a high contrast background image - and if the text becomes too large, it will 'fall off' the background and become unreadable. Of course, as a designer I should be avoiding situations like that, but they do arise - and I'd like to at least encompass the largest range of font sizes I possibly can, rather than sacrificing the design for more than I should)
