FIPS Messed up again

Post by BBQSteve » 28 Aug 2020, 14:33

I don't know what these updates are doing to my instruments in X-Plane, but I sure wish they would stop. Look at the bottom left and right panels (Autopilot and Radio Stack). They used to be perfect.

I wish people would just open a ticket if they have problem and not rant about bugs in beta updates. Just disable them and disable autoupdate at all and you are fine.

Oh and btw that specific problem with fonts being used is a windows bug, and not a SPAD.neXt issue. It occours randomly.

thanks for the windows font bug work around update, will see if I can reproduce the issue. Been a pain for a very long time. Hopefully it wont keep randomly defaulting to a system font any more :-)

It happened I guess when LOTS of gauges using the same LCD font are loaded.
