Search Path Field Height

We have a large LV developer user base and our users are getting confused by the limitations on the search path fields. The lowercase q really looks like a q (see below), any ideas on how to change this to make it more clear?

Thanks!

Ironically, in your message both characters "lowercase g and looks like a q" they both look the same. I understand, looking at the image that you are saying lowercase G and lowercase Q look the same, apparently because the field height clips the image?

I'd be suspicious of something with the windows fonts settings.  All of the characters look slightly different, almost coarser, than I would expect.  It seems like a bad font scaling where things are being scaled slightly larger or smaller.

Hmm I see the same behavior on my Windows 7 machine and a Mac OS X 10.8 machine as well. Changing system fonts didn't seem to make a difference for me. I'm going to ask around here to see if anyone else has a workaround, and file a Corrective Action Request if necessary.
