I am running SCID on a Fedora Linux desktop. My OS just automatically updated SCID to version 5.1, but now the default fonts are too small to read comfortably on my screen. I went into Options --> Preferences --> Fonts and made all the fonts larger, but nothing changed immediately. So I restarted the program, but still, nothing changed. However, most of the other preferences, such as board color, changed immediately and stayed changed when I restarted the program. I finally discovered that I could edit the font lines in ~/.scid5.1/config/options.dat directly, and then the new settings would take. Why can I not change them directly from the program? _______________________________________________ Scid-users mailing list Scid-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/scid-users
