Setting font for Default Paragraph Characters

[Jeff Heath]

I noticed that my DOCX export was putting everything out in Charis SIL font, which has a fairly wide line spacing. I changed the font to Charis (tighter spacing) for each writing system in the Normal style, and I was still getting wide spacing. I noticed that the "before/after context" was still exporting in Charis SIL. So I changed the Dictionary-Context style to <default font>. That didn't help. I had to manually set all of the font attributes in each writing system to Charis. Now the entries seem to export all in Charis font. 

But I notice that the Definitions in Lexicon Edit are still shown in a font with wide line spacing. So where do you set the default, default font!

Also, I notice that when I change the Paragraph configuration for Dictionary-Normal to get rid of After: 2 pt (to go back to the greyed-out 0 pt that comes from Normal), click OK, and go back to the Dictionary-Normal style, it is back to After: 2pt. Bug?

To answer one of your questions, the “default, default” font is set in the Vernacular (or Analysis) Writing System Properties dialog box, accessed via the Format menu.

Yes, I guess that should have been obvious. The AI agent on the FieldWorks website couldn’t seem to come up with that... I guess humans are still useful after all! :-)

Interestingly enough, the display of various fields (including the Definition, which is sometimes long and makes this obvious) in the entry  in Lexicon Edit are still displayed in Charis SIL, with wide line spacing. Where is getting this font from? I’ve changed to Charis in every place I could find.
