Live edit text

Is it possible to turn it off?
  • No, not at the moment. I beleive however that it is off if you are using the simple wireframe view.

    •  Try to use the font list in object properties docker or font list in edit text windows. Those font list dont use live text.

      •  Not that is the single most useful tip I've seen on this forum!

        There really is a way to turn the d***ed thing off!

        I run two monitors, an extra-wide on the left to hold the workspace, and a normal flatscreen on the right with all the dockers and toolbars. I'll just make a habit of leaving Object Properties open over there and use the drop-down list in that when I want to scroll through the list of fonts without changes I'm not interested in showing up in the workspace.

        Thanks!
