Whenever I open the settings, or change the font, the extra settings like spacing, is not preserved but it is reversed to original until I click the settings and do something

if I understood correctly, first screenshot displays the correct state (when everything applied) and the second one (where setting dialog is opened) - the wrong one, with some default values (at least on screenshots font is definitely different). right?

this looks like a bug, please provide exact steps how to reproduce it. what I tried doesn't lead to such situation.

I tried:

  • set font to "Segoe Script 24"
  • set "alignment" to "center" (as in your screenshots)
  • set "spacing" "H" to 2, "V" to 0 (as in your screenshots)
  • press "OK" (this is vital, otherwise changes are dropped)
  • open settings dialog again

also tried to do the same steps and restart the app before opening setting dialog second time.
in these cases everything was preserved.

also one more question: are you using portable or installer version?

if portable, please make sure that config file is updated when you click "OK", also you can find these spacing values in it (font is unfortunately unreadable). maybe config is just not writable for the app for some reason, this may explain settings revert on dialog open...

tried with read-only config: I'm not getting settings revert on dialog even in such case, surprisingly... I lost all settings changes only after app restart (obviously).

so, definitely I need some steps how to get this situation. also it would be nice to have your config, maybe some combination of options leads to this situation. please export it using "Export" button or even better provide "raw config" according to the doc. feel free to edit exported raw data to remove any visible paths or other personal/sensitive data. data exported using "Export" button is not human-readable and will contain everything.

In the screenshot, I also settings like the following, with the any zoom extension enabled as well. I download from the official link you put on your github page (https://sourceforge.net/projects/digitalclock4/)
