Any font property editor for FireMonkey?

[Jim McKeeth 110]

It makes sense that FireMonkey doesn't have the TFontDialog, but I'm curious if there is anything similar out there before I recreate it from scratch.

Hi Jim

For which platform do you need it ?

[Jim McKeeth 110]

I would like it to be cross platform. I realize enumerating the fonts will be specific to platforms, but I'm looking for a font properties editor.

Hi

I'm also interested in this. 

Any news/conclusions?

Under VCL I had a reusable configurator where the user can change (dynamically) the font for the whole application (all forms/all controls).
I would like to have it back in FMX also.

I asked this once, and Remy Lebeau answered thus:

There is nothing built-in to FMX for retrieving the device's fonts.  I've seen 3rd party solutions that provide FMX wrappers for OSX and Windows, but not for Android.  Android does have some APIs you can try directly, see:
