Font-Support ULC-UX

Post by aberbee »

Hello,

We made in GEDI a panel with some TextFields where we use a font Arial - 14 Points.
When we show the panel by a ULC-UX interface (IE) that is connected to a WinCC-OA Webserver project, the font is not take over from the panel.
So it seems that the font on the UI-side is a default font what overrules the font in the panel (so also the font-size).
How can we solve this problem?

I tested it but I cannot see this behaviour, the fonts are displayed correctly.
Do you have a multi language project?
Maybe the fonts have only be defined in one language and all other languages have a default font defined in the panel.

Which WinCC OA version + patch level are you using?

Hello Leopold,

We use WinCC_OA 3.15 patch P006.

We use a Multilanguage project see lines config-file

[general]
pvss_path = "C:/Siemens/Automation/WinCC_OA/3.15"
proj_path = "D:/WinCC_OA/PPG_VFA"
proj_version = "3.15"
langs = "nl_NL.iso88591"
langs = "en_US.iso88591"
mxProxy = "none"

How can I check that a font is defined only in one language?
In the font-properties, the "write-system" is defined to "Any"!
I sent you also a screenshot of a panel opened by GEDI Quicktest and the panel opened by ULC-UX via IE.
The font I used in the panel is "Arial - 14 Points". You can see the font is not active in the ULC-UX.
I hope you can tell me where it goes wrong.

I do not need the screenshots, they are missing in your posting.
In GEDI switch the language and check if the textes are displayed with the correct font in every language.

Leopold,

We were testing with IE version10. So this is not working fine.
I tried it with IE version11, and that is working fine.
In the documentation of WinCC-OA, IE version10 is specified as a supported web browser for ULC-UX.

In an internal document I found the information that IE 11 is the supported browser.
We will clarify it and do an update for the WinCC OA Documentation.
