Hi,
When a selection is present in the document window, the font drop down shows an example of the font face as the text of the document selection.
When no selection is present in the document window, the font drop down shows an example of the font as the font name.
HTH.
Cheers,
Robert
That's what I thought. Doesn't do it anymore. Now an example box appears next to the list, which I turned on somehow, but don't remember how. What could happen to cause the fonts on the dropdown list not to show as an example of the font?
If you right-click the Atlantis toolbars, and uncheck the "Combo Box Hints" menu item, there will be no popup previews for the "Font", "Font size", and "Style" toolbar controls.
Yes, I figured out how to get rid of the Combo Hints, but the drop down menu for fonts does not show an example of the font. I downloaded the trial version to another computer and it does the same thing. Is there a way to have the list of fonts displayed as an example of the font?
If the "Combo Box Hints" option is enabled, you are supposed to get a font preview every time you navigate through the drop-down list of fonts. But note that the preview displays as a font name only when there is no selection in the active document. Are you sure that nothing is selected in the active document, and you still get not preview?
I get the preview. My question is that I swear that at one time when I selected the font drop down menu that all the fonts on the list were displayed as their respective font. Most programs do that, so maybe I'm thinking of another program. But seems to me that Atlantis did it before. No?
