Yes, what you say I is all “obvious” but we have something new:

See:

http://wiki.hindu.org/screenshots/oddText.png



The dropdown under font shows

(Default)
(Menu)
(Message)
(Styled Text)
(System)

These make no sense and do nothing. On selection they just post the selection 
to the field. 
Eg. If you select “(Menu) then “(Menu)” goes to the top and nothing happens.

What happen to loading the current set of active system fonts?

Release notes say nothing about this.. Only new thing with fonts is (also 
mysterious)

"A number of special font names have now been added to LiveCode so you can, for 
example, set
the font of a control to the default font used for buttons. To find out more, 
see the dictionary entry
for the fontNames function.”

Set? How?
