The text/font stuff does need improvement though. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: White Raven (corvusalbus) Date: 2008-05-21 03:52 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1930301 Originator: YES I recompiled Synfig 0.61.07 with fontconfig - text works now! I will try 0.61.08 when the ebuild will be available. Thanks for help! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2008-05-20 13:33 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=35028 Originator: NO Did you compile synfig with fontconfig & freetype support? Does 0.61.08 work?

I have build Synfig 0.61.06 from ebuild in the sunrise overlay and Synfig studio from an ebuild from Gentoo bug tracker on http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111279 I have also tried Synfig and Synfig studio 0.61.07 on another machine with Gentoo - still no text visible. Another try was 0.61.07 on Windows box - there was no problem with text so I think that it's probably only Linux (and maybe only Gentoo) issue. And no change after resetting colors. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Genete (genete) Date: 2007-11-06 06:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1874777 Originator: NO I had the same problem and I solved it when update to the latest version.

They were using a badly built package from an Italian slackware archive I think. Could it be that you are also running a bad build? Did you build it yourself, or where did you get your binaries? Which distro are you using? So you have the colors set to reasonable (non-transparent) values? Try resetting them with the 'R' icon between the two color squares in the main synfig toolbox window. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=757416&aid=1826344&group_id=144022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
