Database cleaning, and Database entry suggestions
Posted: Fri Sep 28, 2007 5:01 pm
Hi! I'm new to the forum, and to fontexpert so maybe I've missed something, but...
I'd like there to be a command which would purge the database of all the fonts which return the "unable to load the fontxxx" error message.
I did the database "remove unlinked folders" command, and that got rid of many of those errors, but not all.
Also, on the "tags" and "database search" panels:
* In both panels, make the "categories" listbox longer, so I don't have to scroll around in it to find tags.
* Make it so the default tags can be removed.
* In the "tags" panel, consider changing the "rating" UI to radio buttons, so I (the user) could quickly choose one without scrolling around in a drop-down box.
Finally (for now, lol) ... I love the customizable view interface, and sometimes put the "Group" pane and the "Folders" pane next to one another. But I discovered that I could do this by messing around -- it's not clear in the manual just how customizable the UI is!
