[jira] [Created] (PIVOT-1066) Create standard font selection components

Roger Lee Whitcomb created PIVOT-1066:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Create standard font selection components
                 Key: PIVOT-1066
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-1066
             Project: Pivot
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: wtk, wtk-terra
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
            Reporter: Roger Lee Whitcomb
            Assignee: Roger Lee Whitcomb
             Fix For: 2.1.0


We have standard calendar and color chooser components, but a lot of GUI programs allow font selection as well. Since it is a bit tricky to implement the styling (for instance) to show the selected font, having a standard component could be useful for rapidly implementing this capability for new applications.

I envision (perhaps) two flavors: a combobox type that just pops down the possible choices, and a larger Sheet version that allows size and style selection as well, and possibly has a preview field (similar to Word font selection).
