Since last build
Version: 3.3.0
Build id: I20070621-1340
The Font on the SQL Edtor become a horrible Arial, very hard to work with since it doesn't have fixed-width.
There is no way to switch back to Courier New, because the font button is gone, and the SQL panel is not listed under the General configuration settings.
Is this intentional?

| You can go to Windows > Preferences > General > Appearance > Colors and Font > Basic > Test Font > change and select your font. |

The issue is deeper than just changing the font. In my case, the font is set correctly to Courier New. What I see is that any non-Java/non-MyEclipse editor I open AFTER MyEclipse has been started opens with a variable pitch font regardless of the font setting. I use JSEclipe to edit JavaScript. If I start MyEclipse with nothing open and then open a JavaScript file, my JSEclipse editor displays using a variable pitch. If I close MyEclipse (with that JavaScript file open and with the focus) and restart MyEclipse, my JSEclipse editor will then use the correct, fixed pitch font. The same scenario holds of other file types I edit (Windows .bat files, Linux shell scripts, ...) that use a basic text editor.
Note that this broke when I upgraded to MyEclipse 6.0.1. Also, I see the same problem on Windows Vista and Linux (SLES 10.) |

Can you go to MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation summary and paste the details here for me.
What version of JSEclipse are you working with ? I was unable to find a JSEditor plugin for Eclipse 3.3. Ill try reproducing this issue at my end as well. |

Yes, I'll post what you're asking for.
You can obtain JSEclipse from http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/jseclipse/
Note that I duplicate this simply doing a File -> Open on an arbitrary shell script or batch file. Upon opening, the font displayed is a variable pitch. If I then close and reopen MyEclipse while this file is open, it will come up in a fixed pitch. |

I have basically the same installation details and am seeing the same behavior. Any update on a workaround or a fix?

| I tried this out at my end but was unable to reproduce the issue. I tried this with a JavaScript file. Could one of you send me a sample file that I can test this with and also paste a screenshot pointing the font pitch variation. |

Guys,
I was finally able to reproduce this at my end as well. I'll take this up with the dev team and get back to you with an update asap. |

| I checked with my dev team and it seems like JSEclipse is not certified to run with MyEclipse. Also, this seems to be the only plugin giving such problems with MyEclipse so I guess you should take this up with the JSEclipse team. I'll stay on top of this issue from my side. |

I do not use the JSEclipse plugin and am seeing the same behavior. I removed the PHPEclipse and Velocity Web Edit plugins I had installed and that did not seem to solve the problem either.
My current configuration, which still exhibits the font problem, is:
Eclipse 3.3.1
MyEclipse 6.0.1
Maven 2.0 Integration 0.0.9
I can reproduce the error by creating a simple text file on the file system and then using File >> Open File to open it. I have included a screen shot below showing how the file is displayed.

taxworks,
MyEclipse does not support Maven. That could be the problem. Have you tried replicating this issue with a clean MyEclipse installation without any plugins installer? |

Sorry to barge in...
This looks like the font problems discussed elsewhere on this forum when opening Ant scripts (build.xml) and it showing in the wrong font. AFAIR it's an issue with Eclipse 3.3.x applying the correct font to some filetypes, as changing the standard Text font to something else, press apply, and reverting to the default, with apply, fixes it for the rest of the ME session. I can only assume this thread applies to the same issue. It's possible this is specific to ME, but I didn't find any time yet to confirm my findings.

| I've noticed the same behavior on MyEclipse 6.0.1 on Windows XP and Mac OS X 10.4. Opening the SQL Editor shows a variable width font by default, and this can corrupt other editors that expect a fixed width font (e.g. Ant editor, properties file editor). A workaround is to open preferences, choose general>appearance>colors and fonts, expand basic, select text font, click use system font, click apply, click reset, click apply, close preferences. Obviously, this is less than convenient ;) |
