Font dropdown list glitch (Windows)
-
Hi,
Maybe it's just my system, as there are some other graphic glitches (like sometimes the transform info tooltip will stay on screen).
-
@Gremriel Can this still be replicated in the latest build (1.0.048) ?

@vectoradmin
Just tested this, and the glitch is still there, I'm afraid. Setting the dropdown list to Collections fixes the issue.
To be honest, I don't know how I would go about troubleshooting it; I have tinkered with the idea to uninstall all my fonts, and then adding them one by one, to see if it's an issue with a particular font. Have to set aside some time for that though
If you have any ideas how to troubleshoot, I'm happy to test it out.

@Gremriel I don't think it is an issue caused by some font (but one can never know). I will keep it open and try to replicate it. Will return with questions if I have.

I can confirm this bug. It also happens on my PC running Windows 11. Happens on both 4K and 1440 monitor.
Edit >Preferences > Text Display > "Preview Fonts in Lists" toggling does not fix.Here is an image for visual reference:

Same on Mac Sierra here, when I click on the down arrow of the fonts list. It takes several tries before I can stay on the list and chose my font.

@Victor-Vector This error has been reported before and I could not replicate it on Windows (nor on Mac).
@Devil-Dinosaur if it is possible to make a short recording (we use record.it) on how to replicate this it would help a lot! Thanks!
-
@vectoradmin After trying again I know that this is indeed my mistake. I finally understood that I had to press the arrow button once and not keep the drop down menu button pressed. That made me confused since the menu appeared/disappeared.
So finally no problem by my side.

@Gremriel This problem should be fixed in build 1.1.024

@vectoradmin It's still there for me, at least the first time I open the dropdown menu. The list is empty, except two fonts at the bottom. I scroll up using the scrollbar, and the fonts appear.
Now, when I use the scrollbar, the font list empties again, until I reach the two fonts at the bottom. However, when I scroll the list with the scroll button on my mouse, the dropdown menu works as expected (but it takes ages to reach a font I'd like to use.
-
@Gremriel Is the font preview alignment correct now?
I will keep the issue with empty list part open. -
@vectoradmin This is what it looks for me.
-
@Gremriel This problem should be fixed in build 1.1.048
-
@VectorStyler Thank you! How did you solve it without being able to reproduce it?
*edit: I saw a post where you were finally able to reproduce it.
-
@Gremriel Yes, I was able to replicate the issue by changing the UI scaling settings in the preferences.
