FAT BOLD Font in Deskscapes-Propertydialog XP
Can`t change dynamic Wallpapersettings no more.
Tuesday, September 1, 2009 by Revanito | Discussion: Windows XP
Hi again... Girl`s in BIG Trouble again! =o(
In XP the Configuration of Deskscapes is a bit different than in VISTA, as you all know.
VISTAs Solution is really comfortable... XPs you have to use the Desktop-Properties-Dialog.Its OK,but...
Today i opened it, and got big Eyes when seeing THIS:

The Font is much too FAT, so one can not reach the Dialog for dynamic Wallper-Setting!!!!
There is NO way to handle this...
Has (pleeeease!) anybody of the more eperienced Guys (`n sure...Women too) a Solution or Idea,
how to fix, and...why is this SO?
I used Font-Doctor to check the XP-Systemfont-Folder... it ended up with "No Problems found!"
Then i used the Commandline:
expand -r CDdrive:\i386\*.tt_ C:\Windows\Fonts
expand -r CDdrive:\i386\*.fo_ C:\Windows\Fonts
to make sure to have all Systemfonts... but; No Change of the Problem.
Now i am completly helpless.
Would be very fine if someone has an Idea.
Many, many Thanx in advance...

That would suggest a missing font as the bold font is the OS system font.
Deskscapes 3 (the beta of which is downloadable from Impulse if you have an ObjectDesktop or Deskscapes license - tick show prereleases on the orb menu), replaces this UI with a new one and so should not suffer this problem.

The Options are cool, and... Windows reacts in Milliseconds when applying a Dream! Really TURBO! =o)
I am very happy now. ![]()
