Font For Displaying Passwords [Fixed in 4.1 b7]

Is this bug reproducible?
Yes.
Which devices did this bug appear on and is it reproducible on any devices?
iPhone, iPad
A quick summary of the bug:
Previous versions of 1PW used a particular font to avoid confusion between characters (e.g. Zero and the letter O Oscar) to prevent errors when manually transcribing them (e.g. WiFi password into printer). I was amongst those who requested this feature and was delighted when it was introduced. 1PW 4.x seems to be using a font with potential for confusion.
Detailed Step-by-step instruction on how to reproduce it:
Reveal a password.
Yes.

How did I not notice this? You're absolutely correct. I guess I never look at my passwords. I only ever use the built-in browser or copy/paste them.
I'm not sure why this would have been changed. I presume it's a simple oversight. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />Flag 0 -
Thanks very much for bringing back the password display font options. I particularly like the way you show potentially ambiguous characters underneath the font name in the settings panel in 4.1b7.
I notice that "Got a question?" has been added to the Display menu item in error?

I also notice that the language appears after Advanced in error too.Flag 0 -
Hi,
Did you notice the blue characters in the password? We use blue colors for numbers only while the alphabetic characters remain black, I love it.
As for the Display issue, that's weird, I'm not able to reproduce it. Have you try killing the app completely and then see if it'll show up again?
Please let me know how it turns out.Flag 0 -
Hi Mike,
Yes I did notice the blue. Excellent.
Killing the app did "fix" it.Flag 0 -
Great idea to let the user choose which font is the best for his needs and also the examples how it looks like. Great job guysFlag 0

Hi folks,
great job ... BUT unfortunately this works NOT for my software licenses? Could you please add this functionality for them too?
