Fonts not saved in Lister Print Setup

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

Fonts not saved in Lister Print Setup

Post by *ArchCarrier »

TC 8.51a, Windows XP SP3:

1. Enter Lister Print Setup
2. Change the font settings
3. Click Close
4. Reopen Print Settings; the changes have reverted back to their defaults

There is no Close button. What do you mean?

I guess ArchCarrier refers to the window's close (or X) button.

It's fully normal that an application behaves like the dialog was cancelled (i.e. Cancel is pressed) if a window is closed via its close button.

Sorry, I meant the 'OK' button, not Close.

I cannot confirm the problem. The font settings are saved correctly for variable and fixed fonts, even after TC's restart.

Tested on TC 8.01 and TC 8.51a on XP SP3.

Are you sure you can write to wincmd.ini?

I think I've found the problem: it's because I had the 'Default' checkboxes checked. Lister then uses the default display fonts to print. I don't think it's very intuitive, but now that I know it, I can live with it.
