I was wondering if anyone had made or knows of a font choosing
dropdown list that displays the names of the different fonts in
their own font. For all you mac users, you know what I mean.
Before I go figuring out how to go about this I thought I would
see if there was something already out there. I find it hard
to believe that I am the first person to want something like this.
I guess part b would be to ask for advice on how to go about
implementing something like this. I was thinking something like
a combo box, with a html component, and then have each entry
in its own tag with the font set, but I could be way off here.
Any advice would be grately appreciated. I am finding things have
come to a standstill with the development, and it is pretty
frustrating.

I haven't done this, but the demo has some examples that deal with fonts that I think will get you started. Download the demo from the website: Redirecting...
And check out the FontDialog and FontEnumerator demos.

Take a look at the ComboCtrl. It looks and acts like a normal combobox, but allows you to have total control over the content of the popup window, including drawing it yourself if you want.

Thanks for the advice, I will look into it. It sounds like what I am looking for.

Thanks for the advice, this has done the trick, now have a nice font
drop down. I would also like to thank whoever created the comboctrl
and listctrl parts of the demo, they were very helpful in getting this
working.
