No default font in v7.301

Hi

In version 7.301 there doesn't appear to be a default font loaded into index 0 anymore.

For now the workarounds I've found for old routines:-


  • Include a smalfont.bmp file in the .app directory as this will still be automatically loaded into font index 0
  • Explicitly load a font first of all into index 1

If you just do :

Code (glbasic) Select
PRINT "HELLO WORLD",64,64
SHOWSCREEN
KEYWAIT


You should see small letters (the default font)

Wampus

I should but I don't. If you do I wonder if there is something wrong with my installation.

My default font is gone too, I never noticed since I almost always create my own font anyway, the default font is just there for telling you that you forgot to make your own :-)

MrTAToad

Yes, I get nothing too... Well, well :)

Neither do I. I report a bug.
The stupid thing is - I have to fix it myself then :S

BTW I've discovered that LOADFONT "smallfont.png", 1 in the beginning of code is an easy workaround for the problem with code that simply needs a basic PRINT output for testing, etc.

I'm loding "Smalfont.png" - one "L"
