Re: Drag & Drop Samples

I know it uses an existing font. Perhaps there could be a way for FC to import the dragged vector pattern. Dragging and dropping is much more intuitive than opening another font file. Right now, if you want to edit the sample font, you have to go find it in the file system, which is not nice on your...

Re: Allow Non-Modal Validation Results

Maybe it could be an "advanced option" - so far that's two requests.

Re: Allow Non-Modal Validation Results

Yes, it was mentioned there in that thread, but the modal-ness of the particular thread entry was not really the topic of discussion.

Drag & Drop Samples

The Samples panel is a very handy window where we can store our most-used and favourite shapes. We can drag things out of that panel onto our workspace. It would be nice if we could drag new samples INTO that panel. And we should be able to delete things in that panel too by pushing delete and click...

Checkbox for Bold Transformation Naming

When we run the glyph transformer, for italic, there is a checkbox for automatically adjusting the naming for italics - but this is missing for bold. And I think both effects should offer the option of automatically setting the subfamily property. Actually, the "italic" function does offer...

Allow Non-Modal Validation Results

When we run the validator, it gives us a report. However, since the window is modal, you can't keep it open and view its contents whilst working in FC. I propose it be made non-modal.

Ah, I get it/got it. That isn't what I expected, but it's what I was looking for!

Moving FC to a different monitor

My workstation has three monitors. When I move FC from one monitor to the next, if there are any of FC's panels open, they don't move with the program. This is good and bad, and there must be a way to leverage all the goods. I might want to keep a panel on a different monitor so I can see my work be...

Rotation Handles

Does FC 7 not come with handles for rotating an object, or am I just missing something. Using the old panel - modify amount and press apply is clumsy. I want to see a live preview of the rotation, or rather, I want to rotate the object via handles - like in a graphics program.

Re: Issues with Adobe Fonts

Okay, it updated to version 5.1.2, but the same problem persists. No, I first noticed the problem about a week ago, I think. What can I do to get you some useful information?

Re: Issues with Adobe Fonts

No, that was with version 5.1.1 - sorry, I should've said that. I'll update it and see if it helps.

Issues with Adobe Fonts

MainType seems to have some issues with the way Adobe programs "load" fonts. MainType seems to find a lot of registry errors with Adobe fonts. Now, I have this problem where I have saved my Adobe fonts in a folder on disk, and then used MainType to install the ones I want so that they are ...
