    Hi there,

    This is perhaps a weird question but I was wondering if there is a way to programmatically de-testInstall a font, so to remove it again from wherever the file is put?

    I have a script that test installs an instance of a font for a specific purpose but this should be destroyed after the script is terminated, so the fonts don’t keep hanging around the system.

    If I knew where the file was put, I could just go and delete it, right? Is that all there is to it?

    Thanks,
    Nina

    use

    from mojo.UI import testDeinstallFont
    
    testDeinstallFont(font)
    

    dont delete the file itself, testDeinstallFont() send notification to the general font manager that something changed…

    good luck!
