For some songs, moving from one verse to another results in drastic font size changes. It would be good to set maximum and minimum font size (or a set font size that is not adjusted), so that verses are more consitent with each other.
That's because the font size was too large to begin with. The only time DremBeam will change font sizes (by making them smaller, never larger) is when it can not fit the text with the user-specified font size within the user-defined area. To give an example, if you set the font size to 300pt, and you have it display a long phrase it will shrink the font until the whole phrase fits within the area you specify. The next verse might have a shorter phrase so it might not need to reduce the font as much as on the first verse.
In other words, you provide DreamBeam with two constraints: a font size, and a display area. On occasion it needs to violate one of those two constraints. It chooses to violate the font size constraint. If instead it respected the font size it would have to violate the display area constraint (perhaps even writing off-screen) and that would be worse.
