Reset Font and Font size on Add Text

Post by Jbarry »

Hi, New user Q-
How can I reset the Default Font and Font Size when using Add Text?
Every time I want to Add Text I have to change each of them. Would think there is a way to make my changes stick.
Much thanks, JB

Hello Jbarry,
Indeed you can, All you need to do to make these changes stick is use the Make Default Style button on the format toolbar:

Hello,
I have understood, that I can change the default font (at least per session) the way described in the last post. But how can I permanently change the defaults available?
I mean these in the palette as shown in the attached screenshot. I have repeatedly changed them from Courier New 12pt to Arial 10pt but these changes don't persist sessions.
Best regards
Joachim

Hello Jotess,

The default styles cannot be modified between session. If you would like to make modifications to the existing styles, you will need to "clone" them and create new custom tool styles. This article goes through the process:

I'm currently using the version which doesn't allow me to change the font size. Please advise which version should I download.
