thanks andrew,i've tried your suggestion on the forum, and could enumerate the font descriptors of the current doc. but i'm interested in dialog controls. few of them feature labels. they have the FontDescriptor and few other relevant fields and methods (obviously an interface they implement). and they obviously really use some font to render these labels. as i said, my problem was that the FontDescriptor shows empty info. what i can assume is, since i don't specifically set the font, the system font is being chosen. but in this case, the descriptor of the system font should be stored there, shouldn't it? however i think this is a bug, i'd like to go around it, by setting myself the system font descriptor in the FontDescriptor field of the control or any other way. please advice on how could i obtain the system font. and' on how could i set the font of a dialog/control. thanks in advance, alex -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
