Description rb w CLA 2018-01-25 13:21:16 EST 
Setting every text and editor font I could find in the Preferences made no difference to the display on Text Editor, HTML edit, JavaScript editor, etc.
Tried to change to Courier 14, and preferences says that the change was made, but the editors ignore it!

Moving to WTP

Patrick, the Text Editor is not from WTP.

rb, is there a specific font setting you've changed and then seen not reflected in a specific editor? It behaves correctly using Courier New 14 for the "Text Font" on High Sierra when I try it with WTP's XML Editor and HTML Editor.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
