360's REPLACE font is very useful. Where is the FIND font to go with it? Sam

Until this feature is added, one workaround would be to replace a certain font with one that stands out (e.g. Goudy Stout, Wingdings). This will make the fonts more noticeable when scanning through the project. I hope it can get better than this soon, though. Brett HillBlake Learning Solutions

I'm curious as to what "tracking" means? Counting the votes? Working on implementing? Haven't removed it from our list? Not doing anything other than considering it?

Another vote for this feature. I have no idea where a particular font is in a course I was just given to update (created by another contractor several years ago). I need to find the instances where a specific font was used so I can check them. I'll try someone else suggested and use the "replace" option to replace it with a BOLD font so I can see it quickly (I hope).

Hi Sam, there is no find font option so I guess it is an all or none situation. Nor is there a place that shows all the fonts that you are using. The only way to figure this out right now is to use the translation export function to export the text to a Word document. You can then look through the doc to see what fonts are used. @Ashley, what Sam is asking is if there is a way of locating an instance of a font on a slide or slides and then just replacing the font for those instances. The way you have implemented this new feature is that you have to replace all instances of the font.

I'm going to bump this up again. Not that Nancy's solution doesn't work, but FIND font in SL 360 is needed. I just did a find/replace in SL 360 to replace a font on some unknown piece of text in a large course. I had no idea where the text was among the many slides and layers. Seems like replacing Droid Sans with Open Sans shouldn't be much of an issue. Unknown to us, the replacement font had a slightly larger kerning. When the customer review process found the single piece of text that was using Droid Sans, the text had wrapped and fallen out of the bottom of the container. This took several hours to identify. So this isn't a non-issue. SL 360 has a find/replace. When will SL 360 come up with a find font? Sam

+1 vote from me too - I have to edit a course developed by someone else and have no idea where the missing font is used.

+1 vote from me too ! AS stated by many over the five years of this discussion, simply replacing fonts can cause other issues and manually finding the changes is time consuming. Can we simply add FIND FONT already?

Is this feature still in the pipeline? I have just encountered the same issue - I needed to replace a font, but I did not know where in the course the font is used to confirm the change was non-destructive.
