Description Dominik 2014-05-17 09:01:29 UTC
Created attachment 99206 [details]
FontName no selector

The selector is drawn as a button, with no visible response when clicking instead of a drop-down selection field as for the font-size.
Comment 1 Jorendc 2014-05-17 09:43:56 UTC
I can confirm this behavior, tested using Windows 8.1 with LibreOffice 4.2.4.2

Steps to reproduce:
* Create a new database (just click through the startup configuration)
* Click on 'Reports' at the left 'sidebar'
* Create report in design view (or something like that)
* Draw a textbox (using on of the icons at the toolbar)
* Select textbox

Easy workaround is to use the right sidebar in tab 'General'. In this setting list, you can change the font type too.

Kind regards,
Joren

Sure, but this way you need at least twice as much clicks and (at least on low-end HW) it takes 2-3 seconds to open the Character Settings.

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I can reproduce this.

I noticed this console logs several times:
