If you want to display both the fontName and fontStyle, define a labelFunction
for the combobox.
function setLabel(item:Object):String {
var fnt:Font = item as Font;
return fnt.fontName + " (" + fnt.fontStyle + ")";
}
font_cb.labelFunction = setLabel;

Subject: [Flashcoders] ComboBox label issue
I�m having a problem properly displaying the font name and variant in a
combobox.
I have fonts embedded in my swf and am exporting for AS.
I have a ComboBox that I�m populating from an enumerated font array like so...
<code>
fontArray = Font.enumerateFonts(false);//using false only enumerates embedded
fonts
fontArray.sortOn("fontName",Array.CASEINSENSITIVE);
_fontDP = new DataProvider(fontArray);
FontCB.dataProvider = _fontDP;
//when I set up the FontCB I set the labelField like so...
FontCB.labelField = "fontName";
</code>
When the ComboBox is opened the display names for the fonts only show the main
name of the font and not
each variant (shown below). When I publish and select to �Generate Size Report� I
get all of the proper font names & variants.
How can I get the proper font names to display properly.
