Thanks. After experimenting a bit, I find it impossible to infer the precedence order of the various font options, especially as the highlighter styles allow you to set "size only" / "family only" / etc. Moreover the "defaulted" settings don't seem to be discoverable from the UI. That is, if I set a font to "family only" Courier, how does the GUI tell me that the font size and font style (regular, bold) are defaults? The font dialog combo boxes don't have a "default" or "blank" option. It seems that when a setting is "defaulted", the combo box shows the 1st item of the list. Many of dialogs show me oblique or italic font styles when I first open them, though the editor area doesn't display any italics. I guess that's a consequence of the above "1st item = either-default-or-really-what-it-says" convention. Where are the settings saved? Is there a way to reset all preferences once they become a mess? I found both a ~/.eric4 (with a bunch of subdirs) and a ~/.config/Eric4. These are conflicting configuration conventions (but whatever). Is there any documentation that addresses these bits? At least the obscure / surprising / non-standard ones... -- Dan _______________________________________________ Eric mailing list Eric@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/eric
