Hello,
With Ambulant branching into other platforms and in making those
smilFiles interchangeable.
Could fit="fill" for text containers be a key feature?
How easy is it to present images the same way with SMIL, fit="fill" for
text could accomplish
that for text.
And if the person viewing wants the text larger then the text container
could be enlarge, simultaneously the other
visual media reduced in a predetermine layout.
I found an fit="fill" HTML example of this:

What do you guys think?
I think this makes it so simple to make universal smilfile.
fit="fill" example in<smilText> and html
The Smil 3.0 fit attribute has not been implemented for smilText on any platform.
That it seems to work in AmbulantPlayer (windows) and AmbulantPlayer_qt (linux)
is caused by the fact that these platforms use the (internal) smiltext_layout_engine and that it has a bug not to show all linefeeds as
specified by <br/> elements in the smilText example, so that the text just fits.
