Missing fonts

Hi

I have just updated to the latest DW app and the font I use for coding (Source Code Pro) is no longer available to use in the preferences > Fonts tab. I have checked I still have the font installed, which I do, but it's just no longer available to use in the list. This is very frustrating as I find this font is the clearest for coding and have always used it.

    Hi

    I have solved this. The font was indeed installed but for some reason after installing the DreamWeaver update it set the font that I was using (Source Code Pro) to hidden.

    I simply set the font to 'show' in the windows>fonts directory, restarted DW and it was showing again in the fonts tab of preferences.

    Before updating I had Source Code Pro selected as my coding font, I'm just wondering if there's a bug in the update that hides the font you currently use in your preferences regardless as to what it is?

    Anyway it's all sorted now

    Thanks

    Source code pro was available and set in my installation.

    Have you checked that the font is in the user fonts directory, and that you are not looking in the Adobe or Dw directory?
