What font is that?

[RossG]

I set the font for a stack but when I create a button or label
the font fields in the Inspector aren't populated.

Can I set a default font to fix this?

Hi Ross,
The text formatting Font of buttons / fields should remain blank unless you want to assign a specific font other then the one you set in the stack inspector.
Just in case I misunderstood your question, is there a reason why you'd like it to populate with the stack's font?

Sometimes I don't want the default font
so I have to scroll down a long way to
"Tahoma" and put in the font size etc.

Would be much simpler and quicker if
these fields were populated.

Hi,
You could just type Tahoma in... no scroll.
But in the end I don't have a solution that fits your request. Well there is programmatically;

Code: Select all

set the textfont of btn 1 to "Courier"

Then is shows up in the inspector.

This seems to have been "fixed" in LC8, although
the font used in the Inspector is italic even though
it's not set to italic!!!
