Hi,

I really dislike the courier font in the Blitzplus editor - I'd like to use the Blitz3D font. Is this possible?

Thanks!

if you copy some txt with a font from somewhere and past it in the b+ editor, then you get the font from the clipboard..

but indeed.. the b3d font was way better..

yes, but your option is not exactly a nice approach :) It would become a mess, plus saving an reloading would set it back to courier. :)

btw I think it's really bad that the IDE takes the font out of other programs - it should convert to ASCII first.

Go into your Blitz+ directory, find the cfg folder, open the blitzide.prefs in notepad or your favorite text editor, change the font_editor entry to a font on your system, save.
Done.

The only other thing you should do is make a backup copy of the blitzide.prefs file BEFORE you make any changes. Just in case.

Copy Blitz.fon to BlitzPlus\cfg and edit the cfg\blitzide.prefs file to use blitz.fon instead of courier (back up blitzide.prefs first)...
