Fwd: Cannot add column headings to dive list (after removing them all)

I thought we had fixed the issue that the table row height didn't adjust for larger fonts... when I try this on my Mac it seems that this works reasonably well for a certain range around the default size, but then fails badly once I go a LOT bigger.
I'm not sure why it failed so quickly for this user (but he's on Windows). Anyway... as we are cleaning up so much of our code, this would be a good one to address

Putting the font size back to 7.88 makes the rows readable again. FWIW I'm on a surfacebook with a high res display (3000x2000) in case that makes a difference?
