font tool options not loading
#1
Hi Everyone,

I've been using GIMP for a while now but something odd just happened and no matter what I try I can't seem to fix it. I was editing the letter spacing of a font in a document, reducing the size with the down arrows, when the tool options box, that in the upper right disappeared. I can't now get it back. 

I'm using a Mac Air with Sonoma, and my version of GIMP is 2.10.34. The area I'm trying to restore is the upper right box of the font options. Now there is only the fonts list, not the options for altering size, width, line spacing etc of whichever font is selected. While I can select fonts, and can use the font tool, the additional text editing options are missing, irrespective of what I tab I click, or when restoring the default settings. When I reload older documents, or go back with my undo history, nothing changes.

Am I missing something? I feel like I can't see the wood for the trees!  Huh

Thanks in advance,

Seth

You are missing the "Tool options" dialog.

Here is how your restore it : https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Gettin...ce-for-all

(this tutorial adds it on the left, because that's where it is by default,but you can use the very same procedure to add it on the right).

Thanks for this, very much appreciated  Smile I see where I went wrong there. 
Sorry for the delay in responding, it's been a busy week.

Thanks again,

I did try that but no joy, thanks though regardless. Sometimes just time and having others looking at it with fresh eyes is all one needs. Smile
