Rename fonts inside font manager [FR]

Open reesericci opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I would like to be able to rename fonts to avoid conflicts and/or fixing font names that are rediculous.

Describe the solution you'd like I want to be able to right click, hit rename and rename the font. It should also be editable inside the properties pane.

Describe alternatives you've considered I can't think of any alternatives.

Additional context One of the fonts I installed had a font name of . I'm not even kidding, the font is completely broken inside figma because of this. image

I agree, I also think it would be nice to be able to edit the metadata directly from the application.

Unfortunately, I also believe there are quite a few potential pitfalls here...

But probably nothing that can't be worked around.

I considered it before but set it aside because there were still a lot of basics missing, at this point I think we're doing pretty good as far as basic features so I'm setting this to a 1.0 milestone but will probably work on it before then. It will likely still be a while though.

Thanks for your interest.
