Dialogue pop-up for inline fonts even though hide fonts setting is unchecked #89

Problem

I've found an issue when trying to change a font inline, which shows me a dialogue pop-up that fonts are hidden. So I did what the pop-up told me, and disabled the checkbox in my settings.

I then restarted Aegisub, and still got the same dialog pop-up saying they are hidden, with an additonal error when pressing "OK".

I've also made sure that really no fonts are hidden by changing the few (139) that were hidden to "show".

Still got the same error, so I'm not sure what else can be done. Any suggestions?

Version: Aegisub 9643-cibuilds-c61f149a3

Note I've never experienced this pop-up before with both standard Aegisub releases and Ristellise/AegisubDC, so I'm not sure why it started happening now (or maybe it's new here?).

Nothing changed regarding font loading between this fork and upstream, and that popup seems to come from Windows itself. So I don't really know what could be causing this, but it's probably some configuration issue in Windows (so outside of Aegisub).

Okay, so the "Style Editor" and changing inline fontface have different ways of retrieving the list of available fonts on the filesystem? That seems kind of strange to me that I can see al the fonts in the "Style Editor" but not being able to do it inline; I imagine it has it's reasons.

I have Aegisub installed at C:\Program Files\Aegisub. Now I've alos found a hidden Deleted folder in my C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts directory. Removed the hidden directory, restarted Aegisub/PC: didn't work. Thought of reinstalling latest build as well: didn't work. Opening Aegisub as administrator: didn't work.

As you said the popup comes from Windows itself, I've also got the same popup when checking the "Preferences", and tried to change the font face.

So I want to believe you when it's outside of Aegisub, but if you also do not know what could be causing this then I'm not sure how to debug this any further. 🙁

If you have any other suggestions, let me know. Else we can close this issue, and if I ever resolve it I will leave a comment.
