Is there a way to select certain fonts as favorites?

At the moment, every time I select a font and write a word in it and change the tool afterwards, it snaps back to Arial, and I have to look for the font again I have just written in.

How can I stop this behavior and have the artistic text tool remember the last used font - and how can I select favorite fonts where I have a shortlist of 4 - 6 fonts I regularly use, so I don't have to browse through all those comic sans funny symbols chalk scriptures and impact stuff to find the fonts I want to use.

thanks!

In the font drop down list there is a heart shape at the right side of each font entry. Click this to make the font a favourite.
At the top of  the font drop down list there is a button to only display favourite fonts.

You also can set defaults for the tools. I think this was explained in other threads already. It works for the text frame tool, too :)

You're welcome. The default settings of tools is pretty usefull. It just takes a little to find the most practical (= universal) settings for oneself :)

Is there any way to lock down fonts selection to 'Favorite'. At the moment it goes back to 'Recent'. I think I know better which fronts I want to see and if I'd want to see 'Recent' I would simply change to it.

Hello @Keram and welcome to the forums.

This is an interesting suggestion but I am not aware that there is a way to make the dropdown to always first show 'favorite' fonts. In contrary to what you write for me it always switches back to 'All', though.

Cheers,
