RubyMine + Snow Leopard

Oct 26, 2009 by Andre

UPDATE: this issue turned out to be part of a larger issue with a failing logic board on my macbook pro. RubyMine continues to be an awesome IDE for Rails development.

RubyMine is a pretty sweet IDE. I've been using it for a few versions now, including the current 2.0 beta.

However, I hit snag when I upgraded my Mac to Snow Leopard this weekend -- RubyMine was showing gibberish for any file I opened. Apparently, RubyMine is trying to use a font which doesn't exist on my upgraded Snow Leopard system. A quick fix is to go into RubyMine's preferences->fonts:

Rubymine garbled text fix

And change it to another monospaced font of your choosing. Hope this helps someone who encounters the same issue.

I'm also on Snow Leopard and in my case all works fine and all fonts are available
