What does "Resource: Available/Not Available" do in views?
Posted: Thu Oct 20, 2016 4:11 am
I was creating some views, and tried the "Resource: Not Available" option, and some of my fonts matched. Does that option have anything to do with the "Resources" in the Font Information panel? If so, why do fonts that exist on disk in the location listed under "Files" show up in the "Resource: Not Available" view?
I have refreshed all font folders, and done a manual sync for the folders that have "Keep in Sync" set. If I rename one of the font files on disk, then re-sync, the "Files" information for that font changes to match the new filename, so I'm very sure those files on disk don't hold different font resources from what is in the library.
I've tried just deleting the font file using MainType, exporting the to another folder, then syncing, and MainType shows the new location for the font resource, but still marks it as "Not Available". I've also tried deleting the file and ignoring, then copying the font back into a watched folder, then unignoring, and the font resource shows back up in MainType with the new file location, but again still marked as "Not Available".
Any ideas?
