All of a sudden this happened again, to my modules, all my fonts are missing? I don't know how to restore my previous changes and see what simple change could have caused this. Other than replacing about 5 hours work and trying to re-add each change one at a time.
On a scale of 1-10 for annoying problems this off the chart. I am not doing anything unusual here. I just made a few changes to some properties and collections and now I don't see any fonts. Any suggestions here?
