As you've learned, it does not work to select the font first. Yes, the correct way to use text in Inkscape, is to type the text first, then change the font. For good measure I have deleted the Inkscape preferences file allowing a new one to be generated on start-up.
Please note I have installed additional fonts from Google fonts into Windows font store, Anton (below) seems particularly susceptible but this could be due to number of variations. The main thing that suggests either a setting or approach is wrong relates to the style box next to font family, when typing it jumps up and down across the various entries (styles) within the box, this seems very odd suggesting something is not working correctly. Selecting a different font from the default appears almost impossible as it jumps back once typing starts, currently I write the full text then highlight in green select new font then apply.ĭifferent text on the same page doesn’t change the highlighted selection (to let you know what it is) I suspect Inkscape maybe having trouble recognising some fonts but this is a guess. Using the text tool seems a little clunky compared to other applications so I suspect my approach is wrong (third point will highlight this).
Whilst this thread is open could I just clarify a couple of bits.
