Hi Mark,

renaming this since I thing is very different topic.

I must say that I don't understand completely what you are trying to share,
But I'm completely open to make changes from px to em or viceversa if we
get a better result.

So first:

I tried in Chrome (for example) to do CMD+ and CMD- to increase/decrease
font size and things scale right for me. Maybe you are referring to another
kind of size changes?

I think you share your changes I can try in JewelTheme and if valid I can
integrate it...maybe a PR? As I worked this latest months with Jewel I'm
finding I need to do some adjustments to font, icon and some other sizes so
different combinations play nice together. Is something I have in my TODO
list, but since I'm finishing our first Royale App, I'm very busy for that
now. Hope in few days/weeks do that...

I think I need here that you share in some code example what you have in
mind...can't figure just with that phrase, sorry.

Thanks for sharing Mark! :)
