So I have a L&F which had:
Font My_LookAndFeel::getPopupMenuFont()
{
#ifdef JUCE_WINDOWS
return Font ("Helvetica", 11.0f, Font::bold);
#else
return Font ("Helvetica", 9.0f, Font::bold);
#endif
}
and the menu font was fine… except I got a report from one of my beta testers… They’d just installed this font:
On their Windows 10 system and suddenly my plugin’s menu fonts were using this new font.
I was able to duplicate the issue locally.
I checked the registry key for font substitutions and Helvetica is mapped to Arial for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes
Any ideas?
The fix was simple, I changed my font to use Arial on Windows… but now I’m curious…??
Cheers,
Rail
