<br>i thought you could send a [;pd refresh{ or something like that but i cant find it. am i crazy?<br><br>m<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jan 24, 2013 at 4:30 PM, Hans-Christoph Steiner <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:hans@at.or.at" target="_blank">hans@at.or.at</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Pd uses almost all of the available widgets in Tk:<br>

The 'text' widget doesn't respond to -size:<br>

You need to specify the point or pixel size as part of the font:<br>
$tkcanvas itemconfigure text -fill red -font {Helvetica 16} ;# points<br>
$tkcanvas itemconfigure text -fill red -font {Helvetica -16} ;# negative is<br>
pixels<br>
<br>
You can also create a 'font' to have that setting in one spot:<br>
