David Foster Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 I thought that I read that this had been fixed in the release notes for 14.0.5 but when I installed the update I still wasn't able to change the default font for references in tools. Whenever I select a new font the font for the text changes but not the references. By the way, thanks for all the work you guys put into this new update!

Dr. Nathan Parker Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 What macOS version? I’ll try to test this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Foster Posted April 30, 2023 Author Share Posted April 30, 2023 Thanks Nathan. I'm running Ventura 13.2.1. Sorry! I'll run the update and then try again... hopefully that will do it. Then I'll post the result... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Foster Posted April 30, 2023 Author Share Posted April 30, 2023 Hey Nathan, I just did the update (for my Mac) and it partially worked. When I went into Accordance -- Settings-- Text Display nothing happened. It is still stuck on Helvetica Neue. However, when I clicked on the gear icon for the individual text and went to 'Set Text Pane Display' it did allow me to change the reference font for that specific module. Thanks again for checking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Nathan Parker Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Someone else reported a similar issue, so I went ahead and filed this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can confirm this is still an issue on 14.0.5 using Mac OS 12.6.5. What I found is that the reference font can be changed for individual texts only by using (cmd + t) on each one; but, it will not do so globally in the Text Display Preferences. Not ideal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Raynor Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Ctrl T for individual texts in Windows locks out reference's customization except for themes. It also locks out Use English Book Names if the text had this option previously unchecked. Not ideal as someone said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Nathan Parker Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Thanks! I’ll report this issue as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Raynor Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Eureka, I found the actual problem.... USE ENGLISH BOOK NAMES MUST BE CHECKED If under advanced you untick English Book Names in at text, then you are locked out of change the reference text size! BUT you are also locked out of changing it back to use English Book Names, so you are stuck with it for that text! This also happens to English Texts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Nathan Parker Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Thanks! I’ll include that in the bug report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This also happens to English Texts Gary I'm not certain if I understand the above; I have "Use English Book Names" checked, and I'm still able to change the Reference Font only on individual texts (cmd+T) – just cannot change the Reference Font on a global basis without that messing up the Text Display Font in texts. Certainly, not an ideal situation. This is on Mac OS 12.6.5, Accordance 14.0.5 – perhaps you have discovered an issue for the Windows platform – I don't have Windows so I'm not able to test this to confirm.

Gary Raynor Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 @accordAt the moment I have not experimented with global preferences. Hopefully the info below is helpful to you. In a Text with Ctrl T this is Bad: references preferences cannot be changed In a Text with Ctrl T this is good: reference preferences can be changed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
