Just trying to get clarification on this issue. Is the scaling of fonts working for android using this attribute? Its working for iOS, I know, but it doesn't seem to want to play nice for android.
I'm trying to make a label that has a string of varying size in it. Here is a sample of the code that I'm using:
var name = Titanium.UI.createLabel({ text:response.name, color:'#000', minimumFontSize:10, font:{fontSize:24,fontFamily:'Helvetica Neue'}, width:120, height:45, top:0, left:0, right:2, wordWrap:false, textAlign:'left' });

You cannot stop the user from changing the system font size; you'll just have to use dp and ignore the lint errors!
To make your font size smaller or larger: On your device, open the Settings app. Search and select Font size. To change your preferred font size, move the slider left or right.
The ideal base font size for mobile screens is 16 pixels. Anything smaller and users will have to pinch and zoom to read.
16px is the minimum when it comes to desktop browsing, while for mobile browsing, the sizes around 16px will do. Use bigger sizes to increase readability and hierarchy, and make it easier for the reader so they don't get frustrated and leave your website.
Use 'sp' as measurement unit for font and 'dp' for sizes (example: fontSize: '24sp'). You can read more about density-specific resources on Android here.
