I have an FM solution where the checkbox is minimized to its width and in webdirect it still shows the "1".

Webdirect: http://cloud.zerobluetech.com/image/421H1Q2i171g

 

Then I went down in font size and at 18 it actually works, with a width of 20. Just wanted to let you guys know.

 

The other thing is a button on a portal row. It fits perfectly well in FM and works. In webdirect I had to put it in the front and remove the fill color.

this didn't work for me.

in WebD, the checkbox looks like it is 12pt, even though in FM it is set to 24 (then 18 to try your technique).

 

 

WebD still treats certain layout objects pretty strangely across different browsers and the FileMaker app.  I've had better luck just using two layout buttons, one representing 'on' and the other 'off' and then conditionally hiding them and setting the field based on a calculated result.

 

If I had to guess (and this solely a guess), FileMaker still treats certain objects as 'native' CSS and defaults to whatever the browser defaults are.  Using a custom button ensures that you're using custom CSS and applying the same object style across all of the different browsers.
