[Gimp-user] Font problem in user interface
UNSOLVED ! i read the whole article, downloaded FontAgent9 (btw wayyys better than Fontbook but VERY expensive as an alternative) -deleted fonts caches (all), restarted, same problem :(( -made a Timemachine safe (just in case...), closed ALL apps, typed your formula in Terminal, validated with pass, got a message about fonts (so, it DID sumptin'), closed, restarted... SAME ISSUE ON GIMP 2.10.12 :(( i use Catalina 10.15 latest version today. the problem is like i had a QWERTY keyboard (i use AZERTY, I'm french) : when I type 2 i get a 4 on my box. WHEREAS in the text editor window I HAVE MY CORRECT SPELLING ! i regret my good old 2.8.2 which NEVER failed. although the selections did no more appear in Catalina. How do we do ? Any help that doesn't need a terminal-toolbox-specialist ? I mean, rather disappointing when my Mac ALWAYS works without having to f***k about like in Windoz. thank you Gimpusers, i LOVE Gimp, and do NOT want anythang else.

Re: [Gimp-user] Font problem in user interface
hi wicky, i've had the same problem before. for me it is a font problem. i use a mac and use true type, open type and mac type1 fonts. when i install the type1 fonts, gimp breaks, if i place them in another directory and link to gimp in preferences>folders>fonts, the problem disappears. so you could have some fonts that are creating the problem. hth, dwain On Sat, May 18, 2019 at 2:05 PM Wicky wrote: > >just downloaded GIMP for Mac, and when I open it all the text in the > >user interface menu is in numerical fractions. > > > >Does anyone know a solution for this - or has had this problem? > > > >I'd love to try out the program - but can't figure out what's what > >with this issue. > > > Same happening with my gimp install (2.10) on Mac running 10.14.4 Mojave > > Working fine for a week or so then UI screwed up with fractions!

[Gimp-user] Font problem in user interface
just downloaded GIMP for Mac, and when I open it all the text in the user interface menu is in numerical fractions. Does anyone know a solution for this - or has had this problem? I'd love to try out the program - but can't figure out what's what with this issue. -- ladyejan (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

It will be a language setting, the strange symbols are foreign language characters that your computer can not display. Something like : http://imgur.com/mryHNmJ I do not use a Mac but try this https://sourceforge.net/p/gimponosx/support-requests/9/ You will have to go by position in the relevent menus on my installation it is like this: http://imgur.com/eZRFCCL Second menu (Edit) 5 up from the bottom -> gives the preferences menu Preferences menu, second option -> top entry and the drop down menu. rich: www.gimp-forum.net -- rich2005 (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
