[CLOSED] Glyphs empty in font panel

Post by deathshadow »

A couple weeks ago I was still on v13, and noticed that glyphs had stopped drawing altogether in the main window / preview panel, but were rendering when I opened up individual glyphs for editing. I upgraded to 14 and it didn't fix the issue.

For example, you can see that I have drawn the letter T. ALL those glyphs are drawn/present, but are showing blank!

Any clue what's wrong? Win 10, RTX 3070, Ryzen 5800x, 64 gigs.

I guess you accidentally changed the glyph display mode. It is best set to auto.

Thanks... but... why does such an option exist in the first place, is there a way it gets set -- and stays set -- without going to it through the menu, and what purpose does it serve?

It is mainly useful for designing color fonts.
