Or something else? Did you set the font through Tool Options, or by selecting text on canvas and using the on-canvas font box? Does it make a difference where you click in the text? Is the text of the layer shown using the right font, or does it, too, revert to "Sans"? Do you have the font installed in your system still? What colour socks are you wearing? :) I.e. what else should I have asked? Which version of GIMP exactly? Which Linux distribution and version exactly? (or Windows XP? or Mac OS X 10.1.3?)

Yes on both Get the text-info python plugin here; https://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp-tools/files/scripts/ When it is installed, if you right-click on any layer in the Layers listn there is an additional item at the bottom of the menu: "Show text information". Then try this: * create an image, and add a text layer. * save the image to XCF (but don't quit yet)(the text information is generated only when the image is saved after the text layer has been created) * use "Show text information", it shoud say something like this; Text layer "A": (text "A" (font "Gilgongo") (font-size 60.00) (font-size-unit pixels) (antialias yes) (language "en-ie") (base-direction ltr) (color (color-rgb 0.00 0.00 0.00)) (justify left) (box-mode dynamic) (box-unit pixels) (hinting yes) (this appears in the Error Console dialog if you have one, otherwise it will be a popup). * Close the image, re-open it * Re-use "Show text information". Is the text info still there? ___ 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
