In LC 6.6.5 on OS X 10.11.6 I created a new stack, dragged a field
onto it (i.e. no font specified for the field) and then in the msg
box:
put the effective textFont of field 1
--the result is 'Lucidia Grande'
In LC 9.0.0 dp4 on the same machine if I do the same thing the result
is '(Text)'
If I go into the LC 9 Object Inspector to set the Font of the newly
created field there are a bunch of entries at the top, which you don't
get in 6.6.5, like:
(Default)
(System)
(Text)
(Styled Text)
These are special font names introduced recently, explained in the
dictionary under "fontnames". Basically these assignments use the
system-compatible font for the designated category.
