A FONT SELECTION DIALOG
You don't really want to be stuck with a 12-point serif font. You need to be able to release your creativity
with all kinds of fonts and sizes so your sketches astound and delight! A font dialog that pops up in response
to a click on a suitable menu item could enable you to change the font for text elements to any of those
available on the system. Implementing this gives you a chance to see how you can get at and process the
fonts that are available. You also learn more about how to add components to a dialog window. The first step
is to establish what the font dialog does.
