Re: [piccolo2d-dev] Default fonts for PText and PHTMLView
Samuel Robert Reid wrote: My team and I write piccolo applications that need to support many languages, and the default fonts specified in PText and PHTMLView often need to be replaced (or glyphs can appear as empty boxes).

I think there's good reason to keep the default fonts static and final in core (PText and PHTMLView) since calling out to Swing doesn't always make sense (e.g. a client may be using POffscreenCanvas). Perhaps you could create a factory for PText and PHTMLView nodes that sets the font to the font UI resource provided by the Swing Look and Feel mechanism? Or maybe those factory methods should exist on PSwingCanvas? michael -- Piccolo2D Developers Group: http://groups.google.com/group/piccolo2d-dev?hl=en
