This is stupid.
Ever since L9 came out, it has been riddled with inanities and process-breaking gremlins that have put a drastic crimp in my workflows. WHY are these things allowed to continue for years without being resolved?

Limited resources.
The look of text is not considered to be a serious bug by Logos development evidently. "Process-breaking gremlins" and "drastic crimp in my workflows" is a bit of hyperbolic melodrama for a wrong font error of this nature, don't you think? If nobody has reported it before, then they might never have noticed it. And even if it has been reported before, it's obviously not a showstopper.

My impression is they get real excited about presentation. Fonts, spacing, amount of white space and so on. But that was when they had a goodly amount of staff pursuing that world. Now, it's getting a bit rough around the edges. Yesterday I noticed a lengthy horizontal scrollbar on a panel, almost black (serious Logosian violation!). The button for multiview is almost indistinguishable (on/off/busy sequence).
OTOH, hebrew is always a Logosian yawner. They never did calm down the sizing, so it doesn't break up the text flow so badly.
Why? Because we users continue to spend our hard earned money on this product regardless of how many bugs it has. I'm very disappointed in Logos and their lack of concern and quality control. There is not a competing product, they know it, this what we get.

I would agree with his overall point about Logos 9 though. It has been the single most workflow-disruptive upgrade for me in terms of the impact of the bugs/flaws/changes/inconsistencies (I came in on Logos 6 for context). Logos 9 has caused me to turn off automatic updates for the first time since I've been a Logos user, and I'm normally someone who has automatic updates turned on for pretty much everything else on my computer.
It's sad because I feel like Logos 9 was a bit of a bait and switch because it didn't seem like it was going to be a drastic overhaul the way Logos 8 was. But Logos 9 has literally changed the way I use Logos in numerous ways just because of the various bugs (especially ones relating to scaling and small screens) and how they have changed the toolbar (bolting on more and more buttons).
End of rant.

I had not gleaned this from the forum posts and I had few issues myself. Those for whom the bugs/flaws/changes/inconsistencies impacted their workflow should have been more vocal. There are some of us who would have changed our priorities for feedback and forum pressure had we known the problems were more than an inconvenience.

People have been vocal. Maybe those problems didn't impact you. But both I and others have been vocal in reporting problems and complaining about bugs and disruptive changes. I've seen plenty of posts, so I guess it's just a difference in perspective. But to simply declare that people haven't been vocal is unfair. The problem is too many people spend too much time downplaying the problems people do complain about, kind of like what's happening on this thread.
Hi David,
I was able to reproduce this and I've created a bug report.
