Text Box - Point size default is in Pixels
#1
Just started using Gimp 2.8 on my new MAC.  Had a problem with no text showing up on my project even though I could type in text box.  I could see a mini micro of something happening at the top of the text box but no text appearing.  Searched the net and checked to make sure I was using RGB and checked canvas size, layer position etc etc.  Finally, double clicked on the text tool and found out that the default setting for text size was PIXELS and not POINTS. Pretty darn hard to see your text when it is 24 pixels and not points Cool Changed to POINTS and everything now well.  Just thought I would give a heads up in case anyone else is having problems using the test tool.  Developers should be notified of this default setting and have it changed to points for text size.
