It seems (at least) part of your issue is caused by the use of inline styles coupled with CSS styles.<\/p>\n

The inline styles of height<\/code> and width<\/code> are hardcoded to fixed pixel values. While the CSS values don’t define a font-size<\/code>, so it’s using the browser’s, or inherited, font size). And to get the desired result we need to have the height<\/code>, width<\/code>, line-height<\/code>, and font-size<\/code> match up.<\/p>\n

I’d recommend moving all the styles to a single source – which could be either inline or CSS. I’ll go with CSS for the solution below. <\/p>\n

I think the best solution would be to match the line-height<\/code>, width<\/code> and height<\/code> properties to a value using em<\/code> units. For example 1.7em<\/code> units. <\/p>\n

With this setup the font-size<\/code> can be changed to nearly anything and the letter will be placed in the center of the element. <\/p>\n

Here’s an example:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\n
\n
.av_btn {\r\n  justify-content: center;\r\n  align-content: center;\r\n  display: inline-flex;\r\n  border-radius: 50%;\r\n  padding: 5px;\r\n  font-size: 18px;\r\n  line-height: 1.7em;\r\n  width: 1.7em;\r\n  height: 1.7em;\r\n  background-color: white;\r\n  font-weight: bold;\r\n  border: 1px #1947D1 solid;\r\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n
<div class=\"av_btn\">\r\n  <b>M<\/b>\r\n<\/div><\/code><\/pre>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
And here’s an example showing how it scales with font size.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\n
\n
var size = document.getElementById(\"font-size\");\r\nvar avatar = document.getElementById(\"avatar\");\r\n\r\nsize.addEventListener(\"change\", function(event) {\r\n  var fontSize = event.target.value;\r\n  avatar.style.fontSize = fontSize + \"px\";\r\n})<\/code><\/pre>\n
.av_btn {\r\n  justify-content: center;\r\n  align-content: center;\r\n  display: inline-flex;\r\n  border-radius: 50%;\r\n  padding: 5px;\r\n  font-size: 18px;\r\n  line-height: 1.7em;\r\n  width: 1.7em;\r\n  height: 1.7em;\r\n  background-color: white;\r\n  font-weight: bold;\r\n  border: 1px #1947D1 solid;\r\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n
<input id=\"font-size\" type=\"range\" min=\"16\" max=\"100\" value=\"16\" \/> \r\n\r\n<div class=\"av_btn\" id=\"avatar\">\r\n  <b>M<\/b>\r\n<\/div><\/code><\/pre>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
