Hi,
I couldn't find a solution to my problem, perhaps the community can help:
after update to the latest version of Openscad on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS I can not
read or even identify anything in the editing dialogue.
Currently I'm running 2014.29 now and all is fine, any later version and it
all looks like Thai writing.
Please: perhaps you know how to adjust the screen font or how to sort the
problem itself ?
Cheers
Peter

That's strange, I think the font selection of Qt is also using the
fontconfig library which tries to provide a system wide configuration
for fonts. Maybe there's an issue with the font cache.
You could try editing the configuration file directly. It's stored
at $HOME/.config/OpenSCAD/OpenSCAD.conf
Changing/Adding the fontfamily line in the editor section:
-snip---------------------------------------------
[editor]
fontfamily=Liberation Mono
-snap---------------------------------------------
If that font is not available, the command fc-list should give
a list of all known fonts like:
/.../LiberationMono-Regular.ttf: Liberation Mono:style=Regular
Note that Ubuntu 14.04 has a broken version number, it claims
to be 2014.01.29 but is in reality 2013.01.
ciao,
Torsten.
Dear Torsten,
Great that helped, thank you very much.
