Error in textFont reporting?

[Bob Warren]

Mark (Smith):

You didn't solve my problem, but you gave me the inspiration to solve it!
Roughly, what I did was to copy the selected (rich) text to a new "temp" 
field using HTMLtext, and then I examined "temp" char by char to see 
what the textFont was. If each char reported the same font name, then 
the whole selection was declared to be of the same font name (in spite 
of differing sizes).

Thanks again!

By the way, does anyone know whether this has been fixed in Rev 2.7?
Or is it supposedly a "feature" and not a "bug"?
A reminder of the original problem is below.

Regards,
Bob

I have a single word (e.g. robert) in a field "test".
The whole word is in the Courier font, but the middle 2 letters are of a 
size different to the others.

I am doing something like this in the field's coding:

on mouseMove
 if the selectedText is not empty then
   put the textFont of the selectedText into field "result"
 end if
end mouseMove


If I select the whole word in field "test", instead of "courier" in the 
field "result" I get "mixed". But it is the SIZE that is mixed, NOT the 
font name!

I am using Rev 2.6.1.
