The g's on Buttons for Example are cut off at the bottom, and sometimes teh second words of Labels are completely missing. I created two screenshots of the controls demo, one taken using firefox, showing the Button labels correctly, and one taken using IE 8, showing the broken button labels. Have a look on the Buttons. The "Toggle" Button has the cutted off g's, and the two Buttons "Default Button" and "Toggle Button" miss the word "button". Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Start the controls demo using IE8. Have a look at the button labels.

I can't reproduce it with current CVS HEAD and Controls Demo - Windows Vista, IE8. Which version of RAP are you using? There was a similar bug 287148 fixed in 1.3M2.
Sorry, I wasn't aware that M2 was out already, I used M1. Trying it with M2. I will close this bug if I can't reproduce it.
Created attachment 150254 [details] "g" literals are still cut off
Tried using M2 there aren't any word cut off anymore, but the g literals are still getting cut off at the bottom. Attached a screenshot. This clearly changes the importance to minor.
Thomas, is the "g" literals problem 100% reproducible in your environment? Maybe it is related to TextSizeDetermination. Reloading the page fixes the problem?
Yes, it is. Checked it again, reloading the page doesn't help either.
Strang thing is that not every g on every button is cut off, only some of them are. Couldn't figure out what circumstances make them being cut off, but the buttons that are affected are always the same.
This can happen if the user zooms in or out (CTRL+wheel or CTRL+"+"/"-"). IE is not very good in displaying websites in any other scale than 1:1. Try setting the zoom back to 100% (it's somewhere in the menu "Ansicht", in english probably "View".)
Thanks! Resetting the Browser Zoom helped, although I actually don't remember that I changed it. But still, zooming in IE causes Labels to be not rendered correctly. But I'm not sure if this can be considered as a Rap BUG. So RAP Team - your shot.
As it seems, there cannot be done much in case the browser content is zoomed. If someone can come up with an idea how to solve this, please feel free to re-open.
