Bold Font Bug

The last several days I have noticed the pop-ups (when I hover my mouse over a hyper-link) occasionally displaying with bold font. Today, the references in a morph search also displayed in bold. Here's a pic:

Weird. I have been able to resolve this issue by either moving the window (doesn't always work), changing the default font and then changing it back to 'default,' or restarting Logos.

A similar issue is discussed here and here.

I don't know the best place to report these kinds of bugs. I'm not looking for a response; just wanting to make this bug known. Thanks.

Bump. Hopefully, someone at logos will acknowledge they're looking into the issue. (no response to any of the 3 threads as yet)

I experienced the "Bold Font Bug" today to. A restart cleared it up. Ugh. [:S]

I am on Mac 10.8.2 running Logos 5.0b, SR1.

I also have experienced this. It comes and goes randomly.

I am on Mac 10.6.8 and Logos 5.0b SR1.

Soli Deo Gloria,

Still a current issue for me. 5.0b SR1

Wow, welcome to the "Bold Font" club Alabama. [:S]

We are aware of the issue. Unfortunately, we are also having trouble reproducing it, so we've yet to isolate the root cause of the issue. If you have any steps to reproduce the issue reliably, we'd love to hear them.

We are aware of the issue.

Thanks for the update Tom.

Tom, thanks for taking note. I have yet to see a repeatable pattern for the cause of this—sometimes it happens when I first open Logos, sometimes when I open a new resource, sometimes it appears to just happen out of the blue. It hasn't happened since I started this thread. I'll do my best to look for a repeatable scenario. Thanks again.

Thanks Tom for the information.

Tom, don't know if this helps, but I was able to semi-reproduce the bug. I noticed that it happened in the [original] Treasury of Scripture Knowledge (I'm working on some material for Russian speaking Christians who only have access to Strong's and a form of the TSK that I'm translating for them). When I changed the font size using the font adjuster in the pull-down under the icon of the book from fourth slot from the right to fifth slot from the right, the bold went away. When I changed the font size back to fourth from the right using the adjuster, the font went back to bold. I was able to do this several times with the same results.

This doesn't explain how the it originated, but I was able to remove it and bring it back. BTW, while I have noticed this in connection with other windows/pop-ups, but I have primarily noticed it happening with cross-references, whether in a resource such as the TSK or the cross-references in the Bibles.

Here are a couple of screen-shots from the most recent episode, as described above. Wish I could offer more help. I'll keep watching.
