Text problem

on a tute i saw that some versions show what the text looks like before you load it.
can 2.69 do this?
how?
thanks

???
on some gas you saw something about text ???

i have no idea

It should preview fonts. Need to make sure that the filters are set to show font files, and the display option is set to show thumbnails…


EDIT: I am on Linux, but I don’t think that should make a difference. I’m also on 2.78c but remember the font previews for quite some time now.

Disregard! I just downloaded 2.69. It doesn’t preview fonts.

thanks .
