Problem while recording a movie from an application

Post by oelgoetz »

Hi, I try to record a movie demonstrating some actions done on the application that I want to write a documentation for. Everything works fine until it comes to a point when the user has to enter text into an edit field of my application. Every time I type a character, the system shows an error message, coming from the .NET Framework telling me that the application only supports True-Type Fonts and what my application uses is no true type font (actually it is MS Sans Serif). Does anybody here know a workaround for it?
(I'm using Windows 7 and .NET 3.5)

Hi oelgoetz,

Welcome to the forums.

Does the sample movie work properly?

The only thing I can think is the input box has the wrong font...

If you select the input box and press [F4] the properties dialog for the inpout box should open. Click the text tab and check/ select the input box font.

HTH
