--- Comment #6 from Tyson Tan <tysont...@gmail.com> --- Today I found out what broke the droplist workaround, as well as discovering a new workaround to make use of font styles. ### What broke the droplist workaround: For some reason, now in 4.3.0prealpha, whenever I tried to input some letters inside the Text Editor's font name droplist, the moment I put the second letter, all new letters (the first and second letter I just input) get HIGHLIGHTED. So now if I input a third letter, the previous two letters are deleted. ### Workaround 1: Press Left Arrow key to cancel the highlight state and move the input cursor to the end. Do this once every two letters are input. To input "Bold": 1) Input "B" and "o" 2) Press Left arrow 3) Input "l" 4) Press Left arrow 5) Input "d" 6) Press Left arrow If the added letters match a style name, it will be activated. ### Workaround 2: Tool options panel of the Text tool has a font droplist as well, and that droplist for some reason lists EVERY font style. In this way we can determine a font with its native style before we create the actual text. ### The missing Bold style: Curiously though, this droplist in Tool options doesn't list any font's Bold style! I wonder whether the Bold ones were linked to/confused with the Bold button in Text Editor's toolbar, which in turn broke both ways as a result? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
