Re: Gnome Font Manager 0.5.7

Hello Flavien:

Thank you for your reply.  All my PCs are dual-boot Ubuntu 15.10 beta and either Windows XP Pro or Windows 10 pro.  Font Manager does not see /media/OS (where Windows is) as a hidden directory.  I just pointed Font Manger to /media/OS/Windows/fonts and I was able to get the needed fonts into Font Manager.

Hi, did you try to put them in .fonts?

I was setting up a PC after loading Ubuntu 15.10 beta.  I was looking for certain ttf fonts I use.  I figured I would copy them from a PC I had just configured correctly.  Font viewer adds fonts (e.g., ttf fonts loaded on a USB drive) to username/.local/share/fonts.  These are invisible to Font Manager since those who wrote the software decided that users did not need to look in hidden folders.  How do I get Font Manager to find fonts in hidden folders?
