When I’m trying to select Petaluma as a music font after creating a project with Bravura/Academico first, the chord symbol text font doesn’t change to Petaluma Text (or Petaluma Script, whichever it’s supposed to change to), but instead stays as Academico or even occasionally changes to an Arial-like font.
I’ve reinstalled Dorico 4.3.11 using the Download Assistant, but the problem persists.
Macbook Pro 16" M1 Max (2021), 64 GB RAM, Dorico running as Intel (Rosetta 2) version, Monterey 12.6.2, Dorico 4.3.11
The Chord symbols font should indeed change to Petaluma Script, while the Chord symbols music text font should change to Petaluma Text, and I find this to be the case. Hannu, could you please do Help > Create Diagnostic Report and attach the resulting zip file here, so I can have a look at your saved settings, in case something in there could be affecting things?
Update: Using Maintain’s Cocktail I removed user caches, including font caches, restarted my Mac, reinstalled Dorico using Steinberg Download Assistant and made sure all settings were reset to factory defaults.
The problem still persists.
I tried to update to Dorico 4.3.11 on my other Mac and it’s working fine, so it looks like that I’d need to reinstall this computer if a working solution can’t be found.
I believe the problem is due to the fact that you’ve saved default fonts for the chord symbols and chord symbols music text font styles in your user library. I’ve adjusted your user library XML file to remove these saved font styles. Unzip the attached archive, and in the Finder, go to /Users/your-username/Library/Application Support/Steinberg/Dorico 4, delete the userlibrary.xml file there, and replace it with the one you unzip from the archive here.
