v.1.4.6
⚒️ Fixes
- Fixed editor font size and default font not working in public release v.0.14.2~ #111
- Pushed another commit to fix a typo on variable
Thank you so much for the team work seen on issue #111 !!! That was really cool to see. I'm grateful for such resourceful and caring users. There's a word for that in Tagalog - it's called bayanihan which roughly translates to the spirit of communal unity/cooperation.
Apologies for breaking the themes of non-insider users ehehe 😅
