Re-7: Old bug still in Rev 2.8 OSX Chapter 4

[runrev260805 at m-r-d.de]

Hi,

ive checked this on my Revolution Studio 2.8.0 Build 360 (GM3) Windows.
I cannot confirm this here. I can choose any font, size and height.
This new settings are present even after quitting and restarting revolution, although there is no "unlock messages" statement in the script of button "Default script font"

Regards,

Matthias
