I'm editing photos at the Preview App and adding texts. I was able to change the font size manually (As in type the size i want) until yesterday. I must have pressed something but i can't figure out how to undo it! Is there anyone who knows? I can still do this in Pages etc. but I must have done something in Preview 😟
Preview App-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
Screenshots of how you are trying your normal method that now fails? - ÇÇÇ
Is this where you changed the font/size? If that doesn't show, simply click on the text square again and it should show up. As far as I know there is no way for a permanent setting - the edit toolbar appears to revert to its default when Preview is closed/quit.
If that is not what you were referring to, post back....
it started working again after i quit and restarted (but i did that yesterday too and wouldnt fix the problem). i have no idea what happened but i'd love to know! I change the size of the font on here.
I was running Mavericks for my screenshot and chose the font/size in the edit toolbar of Preview.
Which OS version are you on? And how are you getting that font window to pop up? That is usually a pop up within a word processing app, not Preview.
The Yosemite version of Preview has this toolbar:
I'm using OS X 10.7.5. I click the Annotations Toolbar and then from there, Show Font Panel (which is that "A" you clicked) and the pop up shows. So yeah, for some reason I locked the manual size (whatever you call it) and I could not even type on the search at the bottom. But its okay now again...
Ahh, ok, I have to admit that I don't remember the Preview app in Lion as I got rid of Lion as soon as I could (I thought it was the worst OS ever) - Mountain Lion finally was what Lion should have been.
