Character Panel: Font collections not synchronised


Recommended Posts

Selecting a font collection in the Character panel shows the previously selected collection, instead of the one selected.
So, for example, if I select the "Sans" collection I see whatever was previously on (e.g.: All Fonts), then I select the "Serif" collection and I get to see list of fonts included in the Sans collection.

Hi kwaaui,

Thanks for letting us know - this is something we're aware of and is currently with development to fix. I will pass your comments on.

We have something very similar to this reported as a Windows only issue, I've tried reproducing it on Mac (both Catalina and Mojave) but each selecting each category is showing the correct list of fonts. Would you mind getting a screen recording from a fresh run of the application that demonstrates the problem please?

Hi Kwaaui,

Thanks for the video that has been most helpful, especially showing your Font Book collection. Initially I was unable to reproduce the issue, then I noticed you had a category called 'Favourites' in your Font Book. We have our own category also called Favourites (fonts that you 'heart' are displayed inside it). Essentially it is de-duplicating this category, which is causing all the other entries to be incorrect by one.

If you temporarily rename your Favourites category in Font Book, can you re-run up Affinity and see if the collections are now listing correctly for you please?

I will get this passed on to development.
