In Visual Studio .NET IDE font settings (Tools, Options, Environment \ Font
and Colors), some installed fonts are not listed. And funnily, when you
choose different selections in "Show settings for:" drop down, different
fonts are missing or listed. For example, for Text Editor, you can choose
the MS Sans Serif font, but for Dialogs and Tool Windows, MS Sans Serif is
not listed. For all settings except for Printer, Tahoma is not listed but
Tahoma Bold is, and Arial Narrow is unlisted while Arial Narrow Bold Italic
is.
Of course, if you select "Automatic" in those settings, the dialogs and tool
windows would probably be displayed in Tahoma font. But my Win XP uses
Simplify Chinese as the default locale so the default font is not Tahoma and
that's how I noticed this. I searched the registry for "FontAndCol ors" and
found some keys containing the font settings. After I changed those values
to "Tahoma" Visual Studio displayed in Tahoma with no problem. But when I
open the font settings page it will be switched back to Tahoma Bold, and I
have to hit cancel.
I had thought the fonts were unlisted because of some language issue, but I
was surprised to find the same thing happening on our school computer lab
PCs (they are in US). Has anyone else noticed / heard of this?

Can't explain it, but it happens on my XP machine as well
as my 2000 pro machine.
THis got me wondering... I'll post if I find anything.

I have a bunch of custom fonts installed on my system.
For instance if I look at the font drop-down in word pad
I see about 90 fonts, but if I build an app using VS.Net,
add a label, and try to change the font - I'm only given
a choice of about 20 - the "standard" fonts which are
installed with the OS (XP).
How can I get the rest of my fonts in this box?
Thanks.

Hello something weird happens to me. I have Windows Server 2003 with all the

The reading of the text file itself goes just fine ;however, this only occurs when I use an absolute file path which will not work of...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
