Blitz3D IDE changed font

Community Forums/General Help/Blitz3D IDE changed font

I recently changed my keyboard input language, and now Blitz3D switched from the nice small bold font, to a larger non bold one. Is there any way to bring back the old font, while keeping the new keyboard setting?

You can increase/decrease the fontsize in pretty much any windows program (which includes the B3D IDE) by holding the control button while using the scrollwheel on your mouse -- it'll increase/descrease the font size.

What Windows version are you using? Different ways depending on it.

@xlsior: it decreased the font size, but it's not bold.

@Kryzon: i know about that. But, i wanted to know if i can bring back the old font, while using my NEW keyboard input language. I'm on Win7.


Thanks.

Oh man, I'm so sick of all this incongrenuity stuff. And unfortunately all I can offer you for sure is my sympathy, but... well, it is a font afterall, right? Why not just track it down and force it into your computers font folder? And what language have you switched to that it doesn't use a through z, kanji?! Ha ha ha ha ha! Anyway, good luck.

Try re-installing Blitz3D with the new keyboard input language active (but, DO NOT uninstall the old installation), then update Blitz3D to the latest version again.

My guess is that the original Blitz bold font is named "Blitz.fon".

You'll need to find a copy of Blitz.fon and also change that listing in your blitzide.prefs file.

I like the skinny verdana.ttf font the best.
