That does do what I wanted. I must say, though, that this functionality is not easily discoverable. I've been using Gimp for ~4 yrs, and although my use of the text tool is very limited, I feel very comfortable with the interface. Rolling over the layer blend mode text field is kind of obvious because it has a list arrow on it indicating there are more options. I would never have thought to try rolling over a button. Perhaps a tool tip is in order when the pointer is paused on the button? TFTH .

[Gimp-developer] Enhancement Proposal: Scrolling of font field in text tool.
I find it very tedious to experiment with various fonts using the current text tool implementation. Rather than clicking on the font button and choosing from the pick list based on the sample "Aa" shown, I would like to be able to type the text I want on the image, then hover the pointer over the font name field and roll the mouse wheel to cycle through the font options, with the typed text font changing accordingly in the image. In effect, it would perform the same as the blend field does in the layers dialogue, i.e. rolling the mouse wheel on the field scrolls through the options and automatically applies each one in turn. If there is a better way to use the current tool, I'm open to advice. But please consider this request for a future release. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Enhancement-Proposal%3A--Scrolling-of-font-field-in-text-tool.-tp24017304p24017304.html Sent from the Gimp Developer mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
