Family Historian User Group

I have just updated and installed Family Historian V4.1.3.
If I open any Individual or Family Property Box and display the Source Pane then some of the field headings are faulty.
'Assessment' is partially obscured by its field value box.
'Where within Source' now reads 'Where within'.
'Text From Source' now reads 'Text From'.
i.e. the word 'Source' missing from these latter two headings.
It makes no difference whether the Source Pane is docked to the Right or Bottom of the Property Box.

Same here on my desktop PC -- except the word Assessment isn't overlapped -- but on my netbook, everything is fine. The difference between the two is that I have customised the property box on my desktop PC (via Options) to use Verdana 8pt for text instead of MS Sans Serif 8pt. If I set it back to MS Sans Serif 8pt, the missing words reappear.

I can only get the problem if I change the font, can you confirm you are not using the default font?

As I said, Jane, when I get the problem I am *not* using the default font.

I've only just noticed this so no idea how long it's been like it, but it's like this for me on v4.1.2.

I'm using 'Segoe UI' 8 pt (which I'd forgotten about - must be a Win7 font, in fact I think that it's designed specifically as a UI font).

'Assessment' is no problem for me but 'Where within Source' and 'Text from source' plus 'Sources For' at the top, all lose the last word.

Thanks Helen, sorry I was aiming my question at Tatewise who did not mention if he was using a different font.

You are correct Jane, that I am NOT using default fonts.
My Tools > Preferences > Property Box Fonts are set to:
Text: Arial, Regular, 10pt
Alter the Text font to Arial Narrow or 9pt or 12 pt, and the missing text returns, which I can live with.
A bit more experimentation gave the following results.
Arial, 10pt & 11pt exhibit the fault, but all other pt sizes are OK.
Courier New, 8pt to 22pt all exhibit the fault.
MS Sans Serif (the default), all pt sizes are OK
Tahoma, 10pt exhibits the fault, but all other pt sizes are OK
Times New Roman, 8pt to 22pt are all OK.
Verdana, 9pt & 18pt are OK, but all other pt sizes exhibit the fault.
I have not tried all the other fonts and pt sizes!
The designers need to fix this problem.

Thank you all.  We have taken note of this issue and will investigate it.  Meanwhile, to work round it, you could either revert to the default font, or experiment with other fonts that don't have the problem.
