Speaking as a user here, I'm not sure if your proposal of a drop down is really what solves the problem here. I really like the fact, that the fonts are categorized. That is something which I really miss in the font selection dialogs currently. If a user has installed a motherload of fonts, he mostly has to scroll and scroll and scroll to pick a font. Using a drop down widget has the disadvantage, that I still have to scroll like mad to pick a font, even if they are categorized. I'm able to find the font much faster, but picking a font is cumbersome as it is now. In fact, the only dialog which I endore is the font dialog from Apples Mac OS X. You still have to scroll to pick a font, if there are lots of fonts in one category, but it minimizes the effort. Well, just my 2 cents to your proposal :) Greetings, -- Roman Joost www: http://www.romanofski.de email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
