Use of "Substitute Fonts" question ...

Hi guys,
do I always have to save and reload my drawing after the use of the "Substitute Fonts" tool to see the outcome?
Is there a more convenient way to work with this tool?

I cannot reproduce that behavior here. Changes should indeed be visible immediately after using this tool. Do you have an example drawing / use case? Thanks.

Unfortunately .... not!
Screen-shots with "extreme font" for demonstration - but this behavior is the same with all tested fonts.

Change the text font - confirm with Ok - no changes visible in the drawing.

Start again - information is correct - it should be the "Keystroke" Font - but I can't see it ...

... cancel the tool - Save/reload the drawing - now I have the changes visible!

And yep - it happened in XP32
Edit: I used a new drawing for the test - no inherited waste!
