If the OS is reporting the wrong value for the default a classic trick
is to create a dummy control that normally has the font we want and
query that.

Hi guys,
The default font for iOS is supposed to be System Bold 15 (according to
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17325152/what-size-font-is-the-title-in-a-default-uibutton
anyway), and it does look more correct to me. Our code is getting to this
native method in MacFontFinder.c
JNIEXPORT jfloat JNICALL
Java_com_sun_javafx_font_MacFontFinder_getSystemFontSize
(JNIEnv *env, jclass obj)
{
CTFontRef font = CTFontCreateUIFontForLanguage(
kCTFontSystemFontType,
0.0, //get system font with default size
NULL);
jfloat systemFontDefaultSize = (jfloat) CTFontGetSize (font);
CFRelease(font);
return systemFontDefaultSize;
}
However it appears the return value is 13 instead of 15 (and I don't know what the actual
default font family / weight is that we're returning). It is possible the answer coming
from this native API call is "wrong". Any ideas?
