Changes to font (Options:Colors/Fonts) not saved?

Postby sturowe » Fri May 08, 2015 1:28 pm

I can change the font used by Newsbin. After closing Newsbin, next time I open it the font has reverted to something else -- I have no idea what font it is, but it's really basic and unremarkable. When I open the Options dialog again, there is no font selected and I must reselect a font. The font SIZE is restored on restart, however. Is there somewhere I can look for an error in saving the config or in startup when loading the font?

Fonts are stored in the file "GuiItems.db3" in your "C:\Users\bla\Appdata\Local\Newsbin" folder. You might just want to search for it and delete it. Might have to check "System/Hidden" on the search.

Seems I was able to fix it by removing just the font related entries from the table and letting Newbin fill them in again. Must have been something odd stuck in there.
