Re: TAMEd XY4: Right fonts, wrong place



Jon and Michael,
Each version of TAME has different menus, but if you right click on an area, command line or text, do you see "Format of on name>"? Then that creates a sub-menu that has "Font style" which, if you put your cursor on it shows a sub-sub-menu, and I have "default" checked. Maybe you can try that.
When I left click on the icon at the top left, as Michael suggests, I see
"View," which then gives a menu with "Primary font," which clicking on
gives all my fonts. I then use Lucida Console, Regular, 11 point.

Let us know what you find.
Jon,
Good to hear from you. If you left-mouse in the upper-left hand corner you get a drop down dialog and go down to View->Text Font where I get list that appears to include most of the fonts on my system, including a courier I got just for XY, Fontcraft Courier. So that list is only giving you three of the man mono fonts installed on that particular computer? Did you check WIN to make sure you have the same fonts installed on all the machines? Can't imagine why TAME would discriminate on one machine and not on the others. What do you think, Harry? NB: At this point, I've moved most of my work to NB. Just waiting for their 32-bit version so I can get a new (64 bit) machine.

This one's probably for Michael Norman. I've been using your tweaked TAME 5.1.
On one computer I've been trying to get a good-looking primary font--I
have a bunch of monospace fonts installed that are changeable on my other
computers. On this one, despite the many fonts listed, what shows up on
the XY page is one of about three fonts--except, strangely, for the
command lines, which show the font I want to compose in. That is, C:\XY
on the upper left, Done, etc. show up in the proper font.

Any thoughts?
