Changing App orientation and size changes font size, WHY?

[MikeLockwood]

I am creating some Sharepoint Forms for lists and need some more space instead of just having things vertically, therefore I change the orientation and size to Landscape and Large.  When I switch back to the main form all the controls on the page have had the font change to 15.57.  This is way to large and defeats that point of going to a larger size.  If I remove all of the controls from the page and add them back they all get a font of 10.5.  The downside to this is all the cards loose the generated name and I would need to spend the time renaming them all.

I did some testing from the default form through the various sizes combinations and this is what I found:

• Portrait - Large (Default)  =  10.5
• Portrait - Small                 =  6.38
• Landscape - Small           =  9.57
• Landscape - Large           = 15.57

The question is why does it do this and how do I go about preventing it?

Hi @MikeLockwood,

It seems that this is by design behavior. If you change the screen size of course PowerApps need to change the font size to, if not, the screen might cannot contain all the content or controls maybe too small comparing to screen size.

You can still add an idea in PowerApps idea forum but I think this is the better way for powerapps.
