Title: Help please! Question about creating Mala Layouts
Post by: Warborg on October 18, 2007, 02:31:10 am

Hopefully this is a quick question...  I'm trying my hand at creating custom Mala layouts, and have it basically up the way I want, but I can't get it to show the custom font I am using when it's actually in use in Mala.  When in MalaLayout, I can see the font just fine, I'm certain the font is installed in the system, but once I save the layout and load it in Mala, it goes back to the default font...  Also, I am trying to set up layouts based on each emu, not one general layout.  Any help would be appreciated.

To use emulator switching layouts click the Emuator checkbox in Options-Gui-Layout

I shall keep my answer to myself...  Not because I'm selfish, but because it was total user error and I don't wish to look more stupider (yes, I know that's incorrect...  :P  ) then I already do...   ;)

Oh well.  I grabbed a soldering iron stand the other day to move it across a desk.  Completely forgot that only a moment earlier it had contained the iron I was holding in my other hand. I was lucky; I couldn't smell the damage.  Gamer reflexes, you know ;)

I'm sure you can't top that.

Uhm, yeah, you keep telling yourself that...  ;)  I'm certain I could top that...  Not that this is something I should be bragging about...   :laugh2:
