It's probably something quite simple. Hope so anyhow.
A few versions back when I entered a custom size for text (say 37.5 points) that figure was retained in the size drop down box while I had that file remained open.
That feature no longer is there in 2018 or later.
How do I get it back?
Thanks
OK, I wrote something for this sort of work. It looks like this:
In contrast to the Font and Font Size boxes in CorelDraw, the controls on this form do not change when a text shape is selected (i.e., to match the properties of the selected text). Instead, the values in the form change when the user changes them, and can be used to modify selected text.
Here's a brief demonstration:
The combobox for Font Size has a number of special features, some of which allow substantial user control over the list of values. For example, you can allow the list to be populated automatically with recently used values, but you can also manually add or delete values from the list, sort it, lock it, etc. I have one video dedicated to describing and demonstrating the special combobox features.
I haven't written any documentation for the Font and Font Size macro, or created a "describe and demonstrate" video yet. If you are interested in trying the macro, just let me know, and I'll get you set up.
That's awesome work!
Thank you, Mike!
I also have some text capabilities in my Adjust Objects; Retain Positions macro, but they are less flexible there, as that macro is primarily about modifying things without losing their positions. Here's a demo where I use AORP to graphically rework a figure that has been asymmetrically stretched:

Just seen it. Incredible! Very interested in getting it.
Great work.
Please contact me through the forum messaging system, and include an e-mail address.
I'll get back to you this evening with a link.
This will eventually show up in my blog, but I don't want to put it up there without more supporting material (description, video) and more testing.
