I’d love to be able to stream my font management, like on services like Twitch, but I really don’t want my full name going out on stream. Can you add an option to hide this information from the title bar?
Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll give this a try!
Great to hear you’re planning to stream MainType—let us know where we can tune in!
Good news: the next MainType update will include an on-the-fly privacy option. After installing the new version:
- Open Help ▸ About MainType.
- Press the C key.
- Two extra buttons appear:
- Clr (permanently unregisters)
- Hide (hides your name/license just for this session)
Click Hide before you go live and the title-bar details will stay hidden while you stream.
That’s great to hear!
Any plans for a permanent hide option?
At the moment we’re not planning a permanent “always-hidden” switch.
If you’d prefer not to show your personal name at all, send me PM and we can re-issue the license to a company or brand name instead.
I’ll think about it. Thanks!
Since I’ve got your ear, just wanted to point out my support post re: the new grid view. I wasn’t able to find it after upgrading - Grid Font View - #4 by Bhikkhu_Pesala
Thanks again!
Good news—there’s now a test build that lets you toggle the license info on or off (the setting sticks until you change it again).
Download it here:

Let us how it works for you!
I installed the test build and gave it a try. Works great!! Thanks for responding to the request!!
