So here is the long waited gui embedded font alteration options. Thank you Andrey.
Problem for me is I can't change font, bold, italic or underline options.
Toolbar is there but not working. Windows 10 Pro x64 v1903 if it helps.
And a suggestion, the font selection should be with searchable combobox.

Regards

*sorry, I had tried to change font outside of the text region. This is not possible for now I guess.
I figured out you had to be inside the text region and select the text to alterate the font, obviously.

I get a (recoverable) soft crash when browsing fonts with the font selector widget. The preview of some fonts is empty in the dropdown list.
(Font doesn't support style regular)


For usability I'd recommend to expose just a small subset of the fonts in the selector (say arial, roman and courier) and leave further options to the context menu or some expert mode.

Also, I recommend to set arial as default font of text widgets (as in Writer plugin).

I guess we will see the option to apply attributes to selected text instead of the whole region soon.

Please describe when it doesn't work? 1) Create a text region 2) Ensure Region is focused 3) Try to change font settings. Is it working?

It is currently searchable actually. Just press first char of the font name you want while dropdown is opened.

Thank you. Will fix it.

Yes, will do this. Previously (before TextRegion reviewed) it was not possible.

Writer Region is best one for this kind of needs.

I had figured text has to be focused, not region. Edited the previous message near 1 hour ago, sorry.
I have mentioned the searchable combobox as in office word, msword, etc. Not only for the first character of the fonts.

Yes, as for now I agree. But I bet every new user will be frustrated when finding out that text formatting can't be applied just to the selection.

Another (hopefully temporary) workaround is to embed a text region into another text region and to format it separately. However, there are alignment glitches and you can't copy and past such embedded texts:

Looks like you have saved broken document in 7200. The issue there was that it was not able to load translations for descriptions, so after save it saved everything except those descriptions. Now there are no descriptions, because these entries lost.

IMHO, all those glorious text region(s) in subject
have strictly no interest in the math suite of project(s).
For publishing, SS 6179 is very similar/superior to
OriginLab 7.5... superior to Mathcad 11.
No shame to publish the attached ... organize at will.
Images in Forum aren't 1/1 in file any more [several months].
Just suggestive for interested users.

Hello,

The file I used did not record it in the SS-7200 version, and it was the one I used to test the SS-7202 version, which worked perfectly.
I did another test on SS-7204 with files that I didn't open in any of the mentioned versions, and the function of displaying the variable description fails.

Here is the same file running on a portable version of SS-7202,
which shows that the description of variables appears complete.

I cannot reproduce this issue. Please could you send a file in question to me by e-mail?

Thanks in advance!

I can't change the default font size. Currently it is set at 10. If I try to change it in the "ribbon", it just switches back to 10 instantly. If I try to via tools-> options, it will change for one text region, but as soon as I finish it changes back to 10.

Also any text that was 8 font as soon as I move it or copy it, it changes to size 10.

Hi,

I confirm this fact.
Unfortunately, the font size cannot be changed and is always set to '10'
