CRISGDO Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 (edited) When I open AP/AD (version 1.8) and following I open FontBase application, they delays and sometimes freeze but return if I wait. In application like photoshop and illustrator it's faster. Edited April 7, 2020 by CRISGDO Quote
Staff Chris B Posted April 8, 2020 Staff Posted April 8, 2020 Hey CRISGDO, I have never used that app so I'm not sure what you're doing. Could you please reply with the exact steps of what you're doing and what you click so I can follow you? If you have the ability to take a video, that would also be great.

Fontbase is a font manager, so when I open it first there's no delay in affinity apps. But when I do it after affinity app is already open then it take a lot of time to loading fonts. I don't know if it is a bug or just a limitation. affinity&fontbasemanager.mp4 Quote
Staff Chris B Posted April 14, 2020 Staff Posted April 14, 2020 Hey CRISGDO, Thanks for the video. How many fonts do you have in your FontBase app? Affinity loads fonts on the fly so if you've got a few thousand waiting to go in that app, I'm not surprised Affinity takes a while to load them all. If they were in your Fonts directory in Windows, it's likely this would not happen as the list enumerates when you load the app. I'm trying to find out some more info at the moment.

Staff Chris B Posted April 14, 2020 Staff Posted April 14, 2020 The developers have suggested they would like to look at improving this at some point as we think we could do better. I can't give you a timescale or anything but it will be added to the list. Thanks CRISGDO 1 Quote How to format a bug report | Learning Resources | List of V2 FAQs | YouTube Tutorials
