Font size in Text box is different from Header in Slicer chart

I'm wondering if this is a bug or default in Power BI Desktop. "Select a year" is a text box that I use font size 14px. "Product" is the header in Slicer chart which I use 14px tool. However these sizes look inconsistent.

If I turn the header on, the size is the same. However I don't like this one because the header "Select a year" is not aligned with the box of 2013 (compared with the above).

 If I use font size 18px for my text box, it is likely the same :).

Hi @s15,

 

I think you should check font family first, I test on last power bi desktop and can't reproduce your issue.

I always use Segoe UI font.

Hi @s15,


Which version you test, have you modify any other options? If you re-create a report, can you reproduce this issue?

 

In addition, it will be help for troubleshooting if you share the sample file to test.

Hi @Anonymous

 

My Power BI Desktop's version is 2.48.4792.721 64-bit (July 2017).

 

Please look at the font type and font size of the header label ("Product"). It is Segoe UI and 14px.

Please look at the text box with the same font type and font size.

I realize that "Year" is smaller than "Product". Do you have the same experience? It looks weird but I'm not sure whether I'm the only one experiecing this.

 

Thank you for your help.

I am frustrated with this too. I am using the exact same font settings in a multi-row card and a text box, but the text size is noticably different:

I don't know what the solution is. Maybe report it as a bug?
