Hi,

Just an addendum to my last post to be clear:

Create a new stack and a field.
Type anything in it.
Select any word and check its font in the Text menu: it's the owner's font.
Set the style of this word to bold (or change its size, etc.)
Check the font in the Text menu: it's no longer the owner's font but now it's the *effective* owner's font which appear check-marked.

May be Ken (if you hear me :-) could provide some regex to strip the font tags when they are specifying the owner's font in the html text?
Would be a solution?

Hi Charles,

Rev has a weird behaviour we discussed on this list a long time ago:
If the font is the owner's font and the size the owner's size , there are no problem. But once you have changed the size or the style of such a chunk, the font of this chunk is no longer the owner's font (empty) but the *effective* owner's font. If I remember correctly, this is not a bug but falls within a runRev choice that we do regret.

I have fields containing a lot of text, mostly in "owner's font," "plain," but with some pieces in a specified font and other pieces in styles bold, link, etc.

When I change the owner's font (in this case, the main stack's), the changes in the text on the cards' fields are inconsistent.

In particular, every time there's a style change (into & out of bold for example, link, etc), a "font" tag gets inserted, hard- wiring whatever the owner's font *was* at the time the text was edited. So the next time the owner's font changes, it affects everything *up to* that style change, but after that the old font is wired in place.

I"m editing the text in the Contents pane of the Inspector. Doing this in the Encoded Text Picker doesn't seem to help. It must be behavior in the Rev engine I suppse.

I'm not able to think of a way not to call this a serious bug. Is there a workaround?? Am I missing something basic?
