fontSizes bust in 6.0

[Jacques Hausser]

Hi Peter,

I just compared the fontSizes in 5.5.4 and 6.0.0. 
In 5.5.4, the Fontsizes returns every numbers from 9 to 72, one number per line, for any scalable font. For bitmap fonts, it returns the installed sizes only.
In 6.0.0, the fontSizes returns 0. For bitmap fonts, it returns the installed sizes only.
Now, in BOTH versions, you can very well set the textSize to any other number, say, 128, and the scalable fonts display perfectly well. (the bitmap fonts display an ugly magnified version).
So I think that, since the scalable fonts can be displayed in any size, the 0 is more logical than a truncated size list.

Jacques
