<cid:part1.02020207.01020200 at hrz.uni-kassel.de>If the font of a button
is empty and you open the font chooser it displays "none" as the font
name as it should.
Then after having chosen a font, e.g. "Arial", nothing is visible in the
"Size" and "Height" fields as a default.
Using the scrollbar of the "size" does not display any option, nor is it
possible to type anything into the "size" field.
The necessary workaround seems to be - maybe there are more
possibilities - to check the "Bold" button. After checking "bold" you
can now type a value into the "Size" field and then you also can use the
size scrollbar to display other values. Likewise the "Height" field now
contains values.
When you have saved the "New Button" and reopen the Font Chooser "@Arial
Unicode MS" is now hilited instead of the originally selected and saved
"Arial".
Seems we need an overhaul of the Font Chooser.
Sorry to cause extra work for the authors of the Font Chooser, who have
devoted so much of their valuable time to produce a modern IDE.
Best regards,
