Hi,

where do I change the default font for the whole site. Currently Tahoma comes up on everything, I'd like it to be arial.

Also how would I change the default colouror size for the font?

Regards 

Kevin

Kevin, step 2, text field and button style.

Default colour, font, point size bold, italic and justification can be set.

You can change many defaults.

If you have pre-existing text you hope will change, save after setting the defaults and then do ctrl+preview to rebuild the whole project.

Thanks for the reply,

Yes I understand that, it's working fine like that.

But How would I change it so that the default is always set to arial instead of Tahoma.

So that when a new project starts thats the default of choice.

Maybe.But I do not think that many users use the same fonts in all projects.As for me, it really is.I try to use almost the same fonts.

Hi Aleksej,

I'm looking at is that 'my choice' of base font is a good place to start as opposed to a forced choice of Tahoma. Others might use totally different font styles.

As a total newbie to X5 I find I'm having to change every single font  on every single text entry.

Would be more user friendly to allow them that choice???

Hello Kevin

I definitely understand what you're proposing

Since, as reported by the other users as well, it is currently not possible to set a default font for every project the software generates but it is necessary to set it for every project, I've turned this topic into an Idea, so that it is highlighted properly for the staff

I thank you for your feedback

Stefano
