Changing font size causes crash on Mac Yosemite

(1/2) > >>

JSeglem:
I have tried to increase the font size via Settings/Editor then select "Choose" which takes me to the font window. The numerous times I have tried to increase the size of the font Codeblocks instantly crashes.

This may be overkill, but I've attached the problem report that pops up.

Is this a bug? Or am I doing something wrong?

I think it is a bug, and it is reported many times but we have no active osx developer which can fix it. We need volunteers...

Jenna:
Which version of C::B do you use ?
If I remember correctly, it' a wxWidgets bug.

JSeglem:
Thanks for responses. I usually don't have an issue with font size, but I find when I looking for things like ; or ' the font size makes them hard to spot.

I'm new to this and downloaded the Release 13.12 rev 0 gcc 4.2.1 Mac OS x/unicode 32 bit.

Will hope the bug gets resolved when a resource shows up.

Hi all - I just wanted to follow up on this post, which I found while having the same problem.

A workaround that I have used is to edit the default.conf file found at:

/Users/<User>/Library/Application Support/codeblocks/default.conf

and change the following line:

<FONT>
        <str>
                <![CDATA[0;10;75;90;90;0;Monaco;0]]>
   </str>
</FONT>

change the "10" to the font size you want. It takes a little trial and error to find the right size (I found that 12 is good for me). Make sure that Code::Blocks is closed when editing this file or your changes will be overwritten when closing the program.

Hope this helps!
