Re: Disabling FontPanel UI elements that we don't support

Is there any way to disable UI elements in the font panel? This seems to
be a problem in some other apps as well.

See the AppKit release notes for NSFontPanel:
----------------------------
Font Panel now has the ability to hide elements that are not applicable by having the target respond to a method validating the font panel modes. The following mode masks are defined:

enum {
NSFontPanelFaceModeMask = 1 << 0,
NSFontPanelSizeModeMask = 1 << 1,
NSFontPanelCollectionModeMask = 1 << 2,
...
NSFontPanelStandardModesMask = 0xFFFF, // standard modes, including those added in the future but expected to work by default
NSFontPanelAllModesMask = 0xFFFFFFFF // all modes, including some added in the future but are not enabled by default
};
If the target wants anything other than the standard mode mask, it must respond to this method.

- (unsigned int)validModesForFontPanel:(NSFontPanel *)fontPanel;
