Hi Roger, when switching from LC 4 to 5.x I experienced also some weirdness with font settings on windows. In my case it wasn't the difference between IDE and standalone, but some field suddenly had funny font settings explicitly set when opening the stacks with 5.x, where the same fields just had inherited it from the stack in version 4. In version 5.x runrev has changed the behavior of the font options. I just don't remember what exactly, but in my case the only solution was to open manually all wrong fields and delete the wrong font settings so that they again could inherit it from the stack. My experience seems to be a bit different, but perhaps the origin is the same.
