    Default System fonts

    Hi,

    Does lingo have a way of querying the host system to determine which fonts are
    available? I would like the user of my projector to be able to choose any of
    the installed system fonts for certain fields. Thanks.

    P.S. What's with this website? Every time I open a page it takes up to 2
    minutes for the beach ball to stop spinning. Mac OS 9.2, Explorer 5.1.

    Default Re: System fonts

    There's an undocumented sort of call, I don;t have it handy, but it's
    like after creating an embedded font member you can get.

    put member("*someFont").fontList


    ( hope fontlist is the term)
