I am trying to use css to add responsiveness to a dashboard. The current method works fine for normal text, however the code does not affect buttons, nor text that constantly updates, I believe that when the code updates, it overrides my edits.

&nbsp;

This is an example of code that works:

&nbsp;

@media screen and (max-width: 1600px){  
.basicHeading{  
font-size: 17px;  
}  
}

@media screen and (max-width: 1280px){  
.basicHeading{  
font-size: 13px;  
}

…  
}

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

This is an example of the code that is not working, I have used 1 px for testing purposes:

@media screen and (max-width: 1280px){

…

.telem{  
font-size: 1px;  
}

}

Hello ui-justin,

We are delighted to welcome you to the KX Community. Thank you for your contribution.

The following should help you for the font-sizing issue of Text&Button:

@media screen and (max-width: 1600px){  
.basicComponents\_label \> div { font-size: 17px; }  
.link-button button \> span { font-size: 17px; }  
}

@media screen and (max-width: 1280px){  
.basicComponents\_label \> div { font-size: 13px; }  
.link-button button \> span { font-size: 13px; }  
}

Let us know how you get on with this. We look forward to future engagement.

Kind regards,

Leah
