Help! All my fonts are greyed out!

Post by kelsie94 »

I can't get my fonts to work in Inkscape! When I click on the text tool I can see all the fonts but I can't change them. I can click on the font and can see what my text looks like in that font but I can't "APPLY" the font. The "APPLY" box is greyed out.

I'm sure it's something simple! I closed out of Inkscape and went back in but it's still greyed out.

HELP!!!

I think "apply" only works if you have text already typed and selected. Try selecting "set as default". HTH

Yay! That worked! Never thought of clicking on Set as Default, and yes, I can see now that I can choose "apply" after text is on the screen!

Thanks so much Heather. You've been such a lifesaver (again!) and all your help is so greatly appreciated!
