Object inspector question

[Roger Guay]

Hi Bill,

I fixed the Add to favorites and the Delete from favorites.  it was a brain bug . . . not an LC bug. I can't duplicate the Export problem you spoke of. Import and Export work fine for me using LC 8.1.0. I will continue to investigate.

The fixed TextOmatic is here:

Cheers,

Roger

This is in debug mode in the IDE, and it behaves the same way as a plugin as a palette . Also, deleting fonts from the “favorites” field doesn’t work in LC 8.1.0.
