A text label problem

Hi everyone,

 

I know this sounds kind of odd and I haven't found support mentioned elsewhere for it but loading up VRC I noticed the symbols for fixes, airports, and VORs seemed to somehow switch to accented symbols instead of their standard triangles, squares, etc. (See picture)

 

A fresh install of VRC yielded the same result and I'm confused since I haven't changed any computer settings or anything along those lines. Can anyone help me out?

 

Thanks!

hmmm strange. Looks like a font issue for sure. Uninstall and re download VRC and reinstall (you may have downloaded a corrupted file the last time)

Hi,

 

If you are using Win XP, then it is a font issue. It just hasn't been installed properly.

 

If you are running VISTA then it could be a display adapter problem. There have a few reports of this happening with VISTA especially with Intel chipsets. Give it some time and I'm sure there will be new drivers released.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Cheers!

Paul.

you may try removing the font "VRC Terminal" from Control Panel -> fonts (just press the delete button)

 

then reinstall VRC again
