Corrupted fonts in P7 after loading Glamorous Toolkit

Hi - I just noticed that when I loaded the Glamorous toolkit and was playing around, when I went to look in the Pharo menus they are all corrupted (the odd character is some type of glyph). Opening a playground and doing some code completion shows that method names have the same random character glyphed.

Anyone else seen this? Is is it something about loading GT?

This is on OSX

Re: Corrupted fonts in P7 after loading Glamorous Toolkit

Actually - I just remembered that I saved my image right after loading GT (and before playing with it) and so quitting without saving shows that it started out fine. So following some of the examples seems to have corrupted something? (In retrospect I should have saved with a new name - so I’ll have to see if I can repro it if its not something already known). But I recall some discussion around Freetype fonts or something - so wondering if anyone has any thoughts, otherwise I’ll log a bug.

That was my thought as well. Maybe try reloading Freetype fonts (IIRC you
can uncheck and recheck in settings)

Hi Tim,

I also reported back an earlier problem (title 'Pharo 7 RC - Changing to larger font breaks scrolling in code browsers').

I also saw some weirdness with fonts (I made them bigger).

There is indeed some way to reset things, but I can't remember it myself.

I did got this effect with GToolkit. I am not sure it is related to
GToolkit as I installed immediately this package, though.

I have recently also some font problems on my new macbook pro with Pharo 6.1.
When I load Roassal and try to run one example, my image crash (with errors related to Cairo). This does not happen with Pharo 7.0

Dunno if this related to my new macbook, Pharo 6.1 VM or my update to last version of Mojave ...

I don’t think is related to GToolkit, it is an ongoing bug we are having (and we still do not understand why it happens, but we are looking at it).
In the mean time, saving the image will “fix” the problem (because it will reset the font caches).

Re: Corrupted fonts in P7 after loading Glamorous Toolkit

As an observation that might help with this - I’ve not been able to recreate the corruption after I had re-saved the image and cured the original corruption. I will go back to my original starting image and see if I can corrupt it from there (previously I had been able to).

So I’m not sure why that save and subsequent font cache reset would hold when it didn’t seem to before.

Re: Corrupted fonts in P7

Bumping this again, as in a new Pharo 7.0.2 image I keep getting font corruption. Saving the image seems to cure it a bit, but it seems more pronounced 7.0.2

e.g. (and ironic that I was looking at some Roman numerals tests - but setup is buggered, and a few minutes ago it was the “all” in Remove all breakpoints….

Is anything being officially looked at? How can we cure this?

And it gets more ridiculous… Pharo is trying to solve the damn problem for me...
