Is it possible to set the icon editor default font

Ever since I upgraded to LV 7.1 my Icon Editor wants to default to 13pt Arial rather than the 10pt Small Font that is more appropriate. Is there a way to set this default? I've looked under Tools -> Options -> Fonts and didn't see anything there...

Hi,
How about double-clicks on the [A] in the Icon Editor, and sets the font and size of your interest?

Cheers!

Yes, that is what I have been doing.
But I'd like a way to make it stick (make it DEFAULT) across shutdowns & restarts of LabVIEW so I didn't have to keep changing it.

I thought it sticks to what it was set even you restart LabVIEW after shutting it down?

Or am I wrong about this?

It sticks for me and always has. I have no idea where that information is stored though. I looked in the LabVIEW.ini file and it wasn't in there.

Hmmm, it's not sticking for me at the moment. I wonder how you slap a piece of software upside the head and say BEHAVE!

Edit your LabVIEW.ini file.
Look for the line IconFont=...

If it's not there, create it as
IconFont=""Small Fonts" 10"

The first and last quotation marks may be unnecessary.
