Re: Doxbox -x and idkey and italics, etc.

It's okay, let's forget about that and see if there's any way to get the bold, italics, and underline modes to work with black text on a white background. It looks like you assumed the background would be the regular XyWrite blue, so you didn't put in any of those text styles to show on a white background.
I see ttf.wpbg. Can I make it white? #ffffff didn't change anything. Nor did entering the word white there.

Can you attach a screenshot to show you meant by this? Thanks.

Thanks, again.

Hi Harry,

For the fonts you can just set the following, assuming they can be found in the Windows fonts directory:

ttf.font                = Consola
ttf.fontbold            = Consolab
ttf.fontital            = Consolai
ttf.fontboit            = Consolaz

Please use the updated Windows binary I uploaded earlier instead of the DOSBox-X 0.83.11 release for the “ttf.wp=xy4” setting.

Thanks, Carl. Now idkey does work. special fonts still not working. And I checked that the fontpath setting is correct.

Font issues are not important to me, however.

Harry,

Does your DOS path in DOSBox-X include the directory with Editor.exe?
