Hi all,

do you know of any tricks to automatically determine a proper labelsize
in David Fanning's fsc_field compound widget (which is a replacement for
IDL's cw_field)?

I want to set it specifically so that my fields align nicely under each
other. However, if by trial and error I find a size for my Windows
computer, the text is cut off if I run the program from a Linux computer
through SSH and using Exceed as an X server (on the same Windows PC).

Alternatively, do you have any tricks for choosing proper fonts in
Widget programs (maybe a platform-dependent choice) so that they look
nice on different platforms?

Thanks,
Benjamin
