Hi there -
RLM works great and elements and images re-size perfectly. I have no breakpoints.
However, the text do not auto-size like the images or other elements. They keep their size and at one point--depending on the length of the text--reach over into the next column. Regardless I have no-wrap or wrap. With wrap on, the font size remains and a second or third line wraps in and shits the column; that's fine, but how to make fonts responsive so they size as well?
Thank you.

Hey Frank,
We would love to add this feature. However it is only supported in one major browser at this time and has not been completed being built by the creators of CSS3.
Once it is out I am sure we will be adding it to Responsive Layout Maker, but as much as we try we can not force "The Builders" as we call them, to hurry and finish CSS3!

I see. Please recommend a workaround. Breakpoints?

This is how it is done for now. You have a breakpoint and reduce the font size.
Now, I am going to have a cup of coffee.

Hey Scott - a related question. Is font size reduction possible without a breakpoint by just using the slider? When I have the slider at a certain px number, can I change the font size at slider px position and so on? Trying to understand better the capability of the breakpoint versus slider since a responsive design should avoid breakpoints.
Thank you.

The entire purpose of the slider is to help with the creation of breakpoints. You then customize settings based on the breakpoint. Just moving the slider without creating a breakpoint simply applies those within the currently selected breakpoint.

There's also a JavaScript solution for resizing type smoothly.

Are there any recommended fonts that should be used for responsive sites.

Dave, it really depends on how you want the site to look. I've used a number of different fonts in RLM and haven't had an issue. The key really is to use the slider and set breakpoints to adjust the fonts.
Also, keep asking questions like you are doing. The more you learn about the responsive programming, the better you will get at it. One day, you will have that "A HA!" moment and it will all fall together.
