The software, in its young stage, already does everything one might
expect from a font manager. I'm still a bit confused with the use of
Tag Sets, but that's another story.

However, the activation of the fonts doesn't happen immediately. I was
working with Inkscape and needed to restart it for the newly-activated
fonts to appear.

Steps to reproduce:
1- Start Fontmatrix and import some fonts.
2- Start inkscape.
3- Activate a font.

Results: Inkscape drop-down menu does not update the font list.
Expected results: Newly-activated fonts should appear.

I'm not submitting a bug on your tracker because I'm not sure whether
this is a bug in Fontmatrix or not. For example, Quark and Suitcase
(another font manager quite similar to Fontmatrix) work together
sharing a Quark plugin, and whenever the active fonts are altered
Quark shows the changes immediately. One has to start Suitcase before
Quark, though Right now you have to restart the software to make the
changes appear and this is suboptimal.

Is this a request to be sent to the Inkscape guys, fontconfig or you?

Regards.
