Text editing improvements

Is annoying changing text labels or text formats using the actual interface.

 

These are my proposals:

 

  1. Configurable styles depends on project file.
    Application Font, Systems Font... For basics. I want to get a corporative template with 'Title style', 'Subtitle style', 'Label style', 'Mystyle style', and depends on project to be portable to every computer.

  2. Upper-case, lower-case styles.
    As bold or italic.

  3. New font dialog -> FONT POP-UP
    And all of us has in mind this...

    When you select every type of editable text field (caption, label, textbox, etc.). And in the center of multi-selections.

  4. Text samples on the font list
    I don't know every font by name...

  5. Embedded fonts on executables and project files

 

I hope you find this useful.

Itself a duplicate of a 2009 idea... oh well!

You're right.  The idea I linked to wasn't marked as a duplicate and I didn't read all the comments to see the link to the original idea.

 

So this is actually a duplicate of A text toolbar

 

However, the first linked idea actually does a nicer job of showing some images of the toolbar.  (By the way, what do the N and K mean in the picture shown in this idea?)

 

Also, this idea's title should be edited from "Text edition improvement"  (wrong derivation of the word "edit" used here) to "Text editing improvement".

You are right, is duplicated. I've searched for this idea (no as good as I think) but not found those posts. I kudo other Ideas.

 

Let's close this.

 

Thank you.

Regardless, there are many kudos in total on those topics. I think that only serves to indicate its potential. Smiley Wink
