Default Changing text box font resets outline width and background opacity

You should be able to recreate this as follows:

1. On a chart, open a new text box.

2. Enter text if desired. (It's not necessary.)

3. Change outline width and background opacity to values other than 0.

4. Click Font...

5. Make changes to font if desired. (It's not necessary.)

6. Click OK to close Font window.

When I do the above, at this point the outline width and background opacity will have reset to 0.

Hello,

I have sent into development to find out if this is a bug or current limitation. Will let you know as soon as I find out. May be Monday before I hear back from development at this point.

I look forward to assisting you further.

If it's a current limitation it's very odd. Because the way it manifests is, you enter text, choose your border and choose your opacity. Then you click Font... to adjust the font. And when you come back from setting the font you've lost some work – because the border width and opacity have been reset – and so you have to do it again. Definitely very strange if that's a feature....
