Suggestion: Change default font

Post by rdwray »

Arial is not the default font and it is not possible to distinguish between a capital "I" and a lower case "l" (L) (see image); it would be nice to change it to Tahoma like being used in this forum. I did a search for "Arial" in all TW files and it seems to be the default in everything.

In the english.lng file you can change this by specifying a font.
On a new line below [_main_] put font=Tahoma

Thanks, works very well in Bible Search, but the issue remains in Strong's and any other module that already has text entered. I tried using twModUtils.exe to change the text but got the same results - only where there is no current text does it work. I am going to try the registry and substitute the font.

Not going to post how, but I got it done through the registry. Would be nice if someone could solve the issue. Thanks, roger.
