IMHO your best option is to use 1 or 2 selectable, non-editable text fields to display the font name and size, and a standard button to bring up a font panel for choosing the font and size. The Xcode button-within-a-text-field thing is just goofy to me. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
