Nels,

I see your issue has been resolved. Sorry that I had not replied but I think we are in vastly different time zones so I was in bed!

It sounds to me like you clicked on the font in the library then just started typing. I think you still had focus on the library. After clicking on the font you want in the library, you need to click on the mat in the main SCAL window, THEN start typing. If you click on a font in the library and start typing right away, the system will move you to the first font that starts with the letter you type as you described.

If you want to use a dingbat font, you first click on the font in the library, click in the mat of the main SCAL window, then click on the dingbat character in the window displaying the font characters.

If you click on the mat then you can use your keyboard but you have to click with mouse on mat before typing
