Description lars 2002-12-13 01:25:23 UTC
if you highlight a word, a red square should appear in the top left corner of 
the highlighted word, and clicking it should open a small window on the left of 
the word, so that the window just touches the left part of the highlighted word 
and that this highlighted word is in the vertical center of the window.
This window then contains a slide bar on its right side, and a font list field 
as its only content.
The visible part of the font list in the window shows 7 fonts and only the 
middle one is highlighted. The scrollbar then scrolls thorugh ALL fonts, the 
highlight always staying on the middle font. Simultaneously the highlighted 
word is displayed with each font, through which is scrolled.
A left click on the slider of the scrollbar then selects this font as the font-
to-be for the highlighted word.
any click elsewhere leaves the font in its former state and closes the window.
A next good idea is, that as soon as the scrolling starts, the word with its 
former font is displayed above the word with the scrolled through fonts 
applied; that's for comparison purposes. A right click on the slider of the 
scrollbar replaces that word above with word of the current font, so that one 
can take this then as reference for comparison.

or similar.
