Hi!
Anyone has this problem when displaying app in Kindle or Samsung simulator ?
Is it going to be like this on device?
I’m using display.text with paragraph width and height.
How can I fix this?
Thanks
Hey, @michael.peiffert (by the way, is it really your email address?), take a look at this link:

It talks about the same thing – and long story short, I believe it’s a simulator specific issue, and it probably won’t appear distorted on device. At least the one I noticed distorted on Kindle simulator view did not distort on device. Check different Kindle views, and if you don’t see it distorted on HD 7" or HD 10" but appear distorted on non-HD view, chances are, it won’t distort on device.

Ok thanks for your response !
I don’t have those devices so I can’t check if it works. But I plan to do in the future.
Yeah this is my email adress. I screwed up when I registered my Corona account 2 years ago.
I don’t know how to change my nickname though…
Ugh, about your username, that’s a pain. Try this:
Click on Sign-in (up on the nav-bar, farthest to the right) if you haven’t already.
Click on Account on the same nav bar (the gray nav bar)
Scroll all the way down to bottom nav bar, and click on this tiny “Edit” link.
Try changing username there, and keep your fingers crossed for it to reflect on Forum too. (And you may want to sign out and sign back in to see if the new username would appear? Not sure.)
Let’s hope you can change it.

The slanted text happens only on the simulator under certain circumstances. I’ve never seen it on the device.
