sIFR 3 cut off uppercase charecters - work around?

Question

Hello everybody,

I have been looking for help for hours now an I cannot solve my problem. I have implemented sIFR3 in a website for headlines, but the uppercase characters such as "S" and "C" or special characters lieke "Ä" or "Ü" for example are cut off.

I found a workaround tutorial here: http://blog.unity.fr/articles/sifr-accented-character-bug-fix-en but there seems to be something wrong with my sifr-config.js

Now my text looks like:

<p class="accentfix"> </p><p class="sIFR-root">NEU: Partnerpreise</p>

And here is js:

css: ['.sIFR-root { ... }',
  '.accentfix{display:block; font-size:1; leading:5; }' ]
});

Hopefully there is someone who can help …

Best regards!

Answer 1

You can use the tuneHeight and offsetTop parameters to make the Flash movie a bit higher and move the text down. That doesn't work?

Answer 2

Did you manage to solve the problem? I have the same problem and tuneHeight and offsetTop dosent seem to do it this time. And i really dont wanna go with a
inside the header just to solve it.'
