A page reload will fix this issue.<\/li>\n<li>The font preview box sometimes appears in random parts of the screen if the existing font size is too large. I&#8217;m looking into fixing this.<\/li>\n<li>The WebFonts option works really badly on Firefox, if you set a webfont in Firefox, the screen will flicker a lot. It works fine in Chrome however, in case you want to try it. It also works ok in the developer version of Firefox (FF47) so when the fixes in that version of Firefox trickle down to the stable version of FF, the web fonts option should start working ok, or you could switch to using the Developer Version of FF, though you would currently need to use the Greasemonkey extension with the GM script version of FBP for that.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Install \/ Update<\/strong>\u00a0the latest version of <strong>FB Purity<\/strong> by clicking the green \u201c<strong>Install FB Purity<\/strong>\u201d button on the <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/install.fbpurity.com\/\">FB Purity Install Page<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip for Google Chrome users<\/strong>\u00a0who are having problems updating FBP: Tick the \u201c<strong>Developer Options<\/strong>\u201d box button on the Extension management page, then click \u201c<strong>Update Extensions Now<\/strong>\u201d button.
