Can I Set Font Type And Size Independently For Two Different Starry Night Windows? (Answer: No, Not Possible)

I changed some font sizes and colors and saved them as an snf file.  Amongst these was to change Constellation names from Verdana 24 to 

<SN_VALUE name="Constellations_FontName" value="@Arial Unicode MS">
<SN_VALUE name="Constellations_FontSize" value="12">

I saved this file as Default.snf.  However when I load this file either from the SN8 menu or by clicking on the .snf file it ignores the setting as the pic shows..  My settings are clearly in the .snf file.

 

Is there a setting I am missing within SN8 please?

  This problem remains if I try to use User Favorite files.  the It fails every time.  A work around is to use Options>Save Current Options As Default but that does not really do what I want since I was trying to have at least two named windows open each with differing color schemes to help me identify items easily.

  Sorry, Pete, font type and size are global settings, so can not be set independently for two different windows.

  Thanks Kieron.  I changed it globally.  I am happy with that.
