GLCD Font Vreator 1.2.0.0 Does not save

#1 Post by MysteryDiver » 22 Jun 2020 17:03

Hello Support Team,
I am currently creating a font with 16x16 pixels.
As soon as I want to save it the dialog appears but when I check it with the Windows 10 Explorer there is no file in my font directory. I use Export for GLCD.
If I use Copy Code To Clipboard I can copy the correct one into an editor.
When I close the program everything I typed in is gone. Here is an example from Copy To Clipboard:

I would be very happy if there was a solution to this problem.
With kind regards

Font creator needs to be run with some form of compatibility mode. I can't remember the exact fix but I think it was either "Run as administrator" or XP compatibility mode.

I just tried, XP sp3 compatibility worked.

Hello oliverb,
I want to express my sincere thanks, I didn't believe in a solution anymore. :D
You wrote "I just tried, XP sp3 compatibility worked."
That's absolutely right, it's a pity that MIKROE doesn't rebuild this software on Windows 10, if I had the sources I would do it so that everyone can use this program, because it's absolutely perfect for bitmap fonts.

With kind regards
