Certain fonts at times will not register and become active



  • There are times when I cannot get an active font to show up correctly in VS. In this example, I'm using a font called "knuckles" that I have used numerous times prior in VS with no issue. There are 18 variations to the font. When I go to use it now, it will not convert the live font I am using over to it. Going to a new document and trying with a fresh text does not fix the issue, nor does closing out everything and restarting VS.
    When I restart VS and open the file - I get a missing font warning - even though both variations of the font are active and were activated together with all the others in that font collection.

    @Boldline it could be a bug in the font name matching. I will try to install the same font.



  • @vectoradmin i just emailed them to you for testing
    There are quite a few in this collection - so it wouldn't surprise me if the naming was causing confusion

    @Boldline I just tried to replicate this using the fonts in the example, at least here the Missing Fonts window is not shown.
    If you have a file containing this font that shows the Missing Font view when opened. Thanks!
