Re: Colorfont locked, not editable?
Hi. I have downloaded a free colorfont just to play arround with and check how its made. But in edit mode I can not do anything with the glyph, it's totally locked. How can I make it editable.

Ok, tnx for checking up Erwin. I shall give the designer a messageErwin Denissen wrote: ↑Mon Jan 02, 2023 9:21 pm Yes, nothing wrong with MainType. There is indeed an issue with the non-variable font's naming. You should contact the font designer, so he can fix his fonts.

Re: After istalling variable fonts by mistake - the full family does not appear?
Trying workarround: reegenerate the fonts in Font Creator, get the name changed to (false-Normal.ttf) instead of original name (Satoshi-Regular.ttf) ?? SOLVED: Generated new ttf files from the otf files and that made them work, for both font families. So was probably not Main Type that was the issue...

Re: Arial duplicates issue
I see, you have no registry issues :lol: Maybe you can delete them through Windows Fonts folder. Otherwise I will look into this within a couple of days. There are currently no issues related to FontCreator, except for the lack of an up-to-date manual, so I intend to focus on a minor update of Main...

Re: Arial duplicates issue
It is not easy but certainly not impossible to install several fonts with the same name, but this is of course unwanted as you won't know which one is going to be used. Maybe the Registry Fixer within MainType can fix this? I open the Registry fixer but can not repair. I tried to just choose the 3 ...

Re: Arial duplicates issue
I checked in "regedit" windows and there are two (2) arial registered. I don't know what it is if one is the narrow??? and the other the whole family?
Do you think it can be a good idea to erase both with regedit and make a new install??

Re: Active Fonts
I also still have this problem. Addressed back in July 2021. See: At start up 480 Active fonts, after some time increases to 4036? I have uninstalled the Adobe Suite and other software to isolate the problem, but it's still there... Good if there can be a fix for this now. I don't have any big probl...
