Re: [libreoffice-users] Font menu display not working correctly

it displayed correctly with 4.4.x when I went to Windows 10

Then I updated/upgraded to 5.0.0 then 5.0.1.  It did not work

Went back to 4.4.5.  Did not work as well.

When I removed the LO5 config folders that the uninstall procedure 
[Win10 Programs and Feature menu option], more of the fonts came back to 
be viewed correctly in the Font Menu, but no all of them came back.

Of course, For one version of Win10 [Home], I cannot get Firefox to open 
a new tab without that tab being used by opening Bing. Plus many of 
their default APPs do not work properly, like their new browser or their 
movie player.

SO, it could be a Win10 issue or a combination of Win10 and LO5.

If I can uninstall LO 4.x.x and 5.x.x and all ll of the registry values, 
maybe I can get a new install of LO to work better on Win10 [Pro and Home].

For now, 4.4.5 shows the MOST in the actual look/feel of the fonts in 
the font menu, than that of 5.0.0 or 5.0.1.

Maybe if I uninstall the non-Windows 10 installed fonts, then reinstall 
them, it might work better.  May try it later.
