The Tile View appears in the FontAgent’s top pane and displays currently selected fonts in a grid of tiles that show:
- Sample font glyphs in their native typefaces
- Font names
- Icons indicating font-file formats including OpenType, TrueType, PostScript Type 1, etc.
- Switches for activating and deactivating the fonts
Displaying the Tile View
To display the Tile View, click its icon in the upper-left toolbar.
Preview Fonts in a Set
To preview a set of fonts easily, just select a set in the Sets Sidebar on the left and the Tile View displays large previews of the fonts in the set.
Compare Styles in a Font Family
The Tile View is also handy in displaying the various styles contained in a font family. To do so, you can either select the font family or multi-select the font style individually.
Activate and Deactivate Fonts
Use the sliders in the upper-right of each font tile to activate and deactivate the font.
Sync Fonts with Bottom-Pane Viewers
When you select a font in the Tile View, the viewers in the bottom pane display that font as well.
