Non-English text display shifted - tkbd - 01-10-2019

This is a problem with text display in the help window of Wings 3D.

This is a Mac specific problem.
I tried to compare it with Windows version the other day
(Wings3D v2.2.1).

The decorated 2 byte text (Japanese) is a problem that the baseline gets bumpy.

It may be a problem is complex relation with wxWidget.
So I would like to share the problem in a form that is easy to understand.

Regular report continue:
I checked it on v2.6.6 in MacOS 10.14.6

(Document window)

(Geometry:Sculpt mode and object info)

So,this time I discovered something new!!!Biggrin
When I change the Wings3D system font to another Japanese font,
Then Sculpt mode and object info text is fiexed correctly!!!.
But Document windows text not fixed...

Probably when the font is not set in Wings3D, it is the default fallback font provided by MacOS native, and I think that is causing the baseline bug.

My guess is that restarting Wings3D will change the UI fonts correctly. But, the font used in the document window has not changed.
