You mean something like this?

That's an old problem (and not only on Ubuntu).

Re: garbled text of Font family

Yep - that's happened to me, and while I didn't use Scratch when I had Ubuntu, I didn't exactly find the "variety" of fonts installed on that computer to be awfully well-organized.

We really should have a better way of organizing the fonts - I find myself having to click through the gargled mess of fonts on my computer to get to the same font, over and over again. I think something like with Microsoft Word, with a drop-down with a scrollbar, would be the best option - what do you guys think? I'll make a suggestion for it  smile
