irfanj Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Hi, Quick question, currently my font menu only shows 10 fonts at a time, is there a way to make it longer? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarryP Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Welcome to the forums. I don’t think there’s a way to do that but you could add some fonts to your Favourites to alleviate some scrolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markw Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 In general you should be able to see more than 10 fonts at a time. Though this can alter depending on in which font menu/subcategory you are looking. Could you post a screenshot of what you are seeing? Also which Affinity apps and versions are you using and on which OS, Mac or Windows?

irfanj Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 thanks, Attached screenshot. I don't think its a specific category im looking at, have clicked on ALL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markw Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 That is strange? On my Mac all three Affinity apps use, and always have, a scrolling list that fills the entire window hight. I know of no option/preference to restrict or increase the number of fonts shown. jmwellborn 1 Quote macOS 10.15.7 | 15" Macbook Pro, 2017 | 4 Core i7 3.1GHz CPU | Radeon Pro 555 2GB GPU + Integrated Intel HD Graphics 630 1.536GB | 16GB RAM | Wacom Intuos4 M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markw Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I just noticed on your screenshot that you appear to have typed in a font name perhaps? The Affinity apps will all start to auto search for fonts relating to the characters you type, as you type them. Maybe this is why you are only seeing a short list? In which case that is normal.

carl123 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 No, on Windows you only get a small list (not sure why) Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

irfanj Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 even when not searching for a font, still happens. I am using windows, so im guessing its a windows thing..hmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Note that there is a scroll bar in your list. Quote Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irfanj Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 the issue is not that i cant scroll, the issue is that the size of the dropdown is small (only allowing 10 fonts at a time). See the above screenshots. Would be good if the menu filled the entire length of the screen or if we could change it. markw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
