i-TriLOGI V6.45 font issue
« on: December 21, 2012, 12:20:31 PM »
I just down loaded the most recent i-TriLOGI and ran into an issue with the incorrect font usages.  I expected that the custom function editor would use a mono-pitched font.  But some of the syntax highlighting must use a variable-pitched font.

Please see screen dump and notice that the line with the "FF".

Thanks,

Gary D

You can change the font type use on the Custom Function editor by changing it in the en_language.txt file on the C:\TRiLOGI\TL6 folder.

Specifically you can replace the following line:

CFeditorFontName???Lucida Console

with

CFeditorFontName???monospaced

in order to get true mono spaced font. Lucida Console is also monospace to a certain extent but the bold face character appears to be wider than non bold face and therefore a combination of bold face and non bold face appears to be not in alignment. However, Lucida Console can be more appealing to the eyes than monospaced font which defaults to Courier or Courier New font face.

If you have some good mono-spaced font on your computer you can also replace it with your own preferred font face.

Thanks,

Your right about ugly, but I like things to line up.
