  • Font Drop Down Menu has Become Corrupted

    Posted by Mike Petty on January 21, 2015 at 1:54 am

    Hey all…

    For whatever reason my font menu has become corrupted. I can change fonts no problem but the WYSWYG presentation is mostly gibberish.

    I have removed all non standard fonts in Font Book and dumped FCPX Prefs – No Luck.

    I can reinstall FCPX but I have a ton of plug ins and don’t want to spend a day reloading them…

    Any thoughts or recommendations.

    The phrase “I have a ton of plug-ins” scares me. IME, plug-ins are the source of more FCPX screw ups than anything else by several orders of magnitude. YMMV.

    Try “Repair Permissions”. I had a funky menu situation once and that may have fixed it. It’s worth a shot.
