Hi,
Thank you. Very useful. I just need the name of the font and size to display
it on the undo menu item. I did it. Thanks.

Furthermore, do you know how to subclass the "change font shadow parameters"
in the Font Panel? I cannot figure out which API I have to subclass.
I mean, when you click and drag the controls on the FontPanel which change
the shadow of the selected text.


Best Regards
