My text size default is massive - al.da.drone - 09-02-2018

Hi there Gimp Forum I have a new issue that I hope somebody on here can solve. My text size default is 2164 and its doing my nut in. Is this a bug in Gimp or can it be rectified in the setting.I've had a look and I see no option for this. I've added an attachment.

Thanks

Set it (and everything else(*)) as you wish, then got to Edit>Preference>Tool options, and click Save tool options now.

(*) which means:

- options in all tools
- current FG/BG colors, pattern, gradient, brush...
- current active tool

The text is sized in inches, change that to pixels (px) in the tool options and the size. The on canvas settings are for selected text.

The line spacing is a bit suspect and the text might be a little cramped

Unless set up otherwise, Gimp saves the last settings used for the next start. Does the Gimp start with the monster text settings all the time? 

You should check in Edit -> Preferences -> Tool Options and click on Reset Saved Tool Options to Default Values
