Hi

Sorry to annoy you with this matter again.
The Font's are now Visible in the Code Editor setup but every
Font you select is only in Bold, Normal, Italic etc. selections
have no effect.

I am used to using Fixsys or System Fonts for years, so that's the reason
for changing.

Edit: I tried it on my Laptop and it works fine as Normal Font, though if
you change it to Bold it will not change.
Both systems XP SP3

If I remember correctly, I did not build in the ability to change the main editor font to an effect other than normal (ie. bold, normal, italic). Actually, I would have preferred to remove those choices from the popup dialog altogether.

On second thought though, I guess some people do use a Bold font for their main code editor font.

I have no need to change Fonts to Bold or Italic etc. except my main
working PC is stuck on Bold font for some reason, yet my Laptop
is fine (stays on Normal). Though I have noticed the Bold fonts since the
first FF3 installation.

That's odd. Maybe this will help.

Close FF3.

Try manually editing your "FireFly.ini" configuration file (found in the "Settings" folder off of your main FF3 install folder) to totally remove the following line:

CodeEditorFont=Courier New,-13,0,0,0,400,0,0,0,0,3,2,1,49

Save the file and restart FF3.

FF3 will see that no existing font has been specified for the CodeEditorFont so it will then use a default font. Exiting FF3 will then save this new font back into the config file.

Hope that works okay for you.
