[Bug 1804137] Re: Font-Manager does not allow custom prevew text

 

The preview pane allows custom text and always has.

It should probably be more obvious but it is there.

0.7.4 which was recently released allows custom preview text in browse
and compare modes.

Title:
  Font-Manager does not allow custom prevew text

Status in font-manager package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  In 18.04.

  Allowing custom preview text is absolutely crucial for a font preview
  tool, and it's been something font-manager has always had.

  It's so easy to implement, I can't see any no reason to remove such an
  important feature.

  As FontMatrix is long since dead, there is now no way to view a custom
  text when deciding what font to install or use, a crucial feature for
  graphic design work.
