Workspaces font query

Hi guys, I'm probably being stupid but I've somehow changed the font in workspaces and can't figure out how to change it back. I wouldn't mind but it's really ugly and not easy to read.

Any ideas?

Have you tried restoring the font size under the View menu?

Thanks for the suggestion but it didn't work unfortunately. It's the actual font itself rather than the size that's my problem.

I've had this happen to me this morning too, it's a really hideous font and it's incredibly difficult to read. It's completely different from the fonts used in the HTML programming videos, too. I've been searching the last hour for an answer to fix it but alas no luck.

It's pretty frustrating huh? If you do manage to find a fix I'd really appreciate it if you could let me know, I'll do the same :)

Cheers Kevin,

Pete

Hi, did you check out this forum thread: https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/workspace-has-a-weird-font

My workspace is also using the gross font reflected in the image in the original post of that thread. A few of the respondents offered some workarounds that you might want to pursue, but it looks like it's a problem on Treehouse's side, not anything that you did.

Hey Justin,

Thanks for this! Yeah I came across that, I've dropped the support guys a message to see if they can sort it. Thanks for the info, much appreciated :)
