Task Builder Font Preferences

Use this option to select a customized font to be used for the Visual view and the AML view of the Task Builder's Steps pane. A different font can be used for each view. The default fonts used in the Task Builder interface are Segoe UI 9 pt. regular for the Visual view and Courier New 10 pt. regular for the AML view. There are a variety of other fonts to choose from if you want. For the best appearance, use True Type fonts.

Property

Description

Visual View

The font to be used when Visual mode is selected from the View menu. We suggests an easy to read font for this view, such as Tahoma, since Visual mode is meant to provide a clear, natural-language description about the task's steps. Click Change to select a new font name, size and style.

  • Visual view default font name: Segoe UI

  • Visual view default font size: 9

  • Visual view default font style: Regular

AML View

The font to be used when AML mode is selected from the View menu. A fixed-width font, such as Courier, for this view is suggested, since AML view is typically used for fine, programmatic refinements to task steps. Click Change to select a new font name, size and style.
