Choosing fonts in AC - could it be EASIER ?

[Anonymous]

In my country Bulgaria we write in Cyrillic alphabeth. Which makes it very irritating when you have to pick the font you want from the pull-down menu in AC - it gives me a choice among almost all the languages in the world, including Vietnamese!
I guess it won't be difficult to make it like it is in the other popular applications we all use like MSWord or Photoshop. Please, take a look at the picture to see what I mean.
It can drive me crazy!

I agree. This has always been a serious annoyance for me working on ArchiCAD in Windows (it's no problem on the Mac). It seems like it can't be too big a deal to fix since no other software (AFAIK) has this problem.

It was a VERY big problem when I was trying to coordinate a project under AC 5.0 and the font names from the Windows machines (e.g "Arial Western", etc...) were not recognized by the Macs. This must have been fixed since I haven't had the problem since.

But you still have to type the font name in the object settings dialog box

And when can we expect THAT to be solved? Next library update?
