Hi all,
Apologies for the late reply but I have finally figured out what was
causing my problems.
Firstly, yes there also was the CSS thing going on as suggested by
several of you (possibly caused by fontinfo versions) and adding a few
additional css properties (especially font-size for textarea) fixed the
font size, however it didn't fix the shifting of the text within the
text field (text shifted down partially outside the field in the
original screenshot).
When I tried to replicate this in a new project I couldnt so I knew this
had to be caused by something in my project.
Anyway, several days of troubleshooting later (it's a rather complex
project) I found that all text fields' text shifted down the moment one
specific NIB was loaded. It didn't even needed to be displayed or used,
just loading was enough. The NIB itself ( a view controller with one
view) was actually very simple with just a text field a button and a few
labels, but for some reason it caused all text fields in the entire app
to change.
I eventually ended up removing the 7 objects from the controller's view
and re-added them fresh which resolved all issues, but I have absolutely
no idea why this would have caused this problem in the first place.
I don't think anyone can tell me what caused this exactly without seeing
the problem itself but if anyone has any ideas then please let me know.
Even if it's just tips how to make troubleshooting this easier next
time.
Thanks for everyone's suggestions!
