Hi,
How do you capture the font, size and style of a TextArea?
I have tried
if (cmd.equals(fontPlain))
    {
    // returns String representing the logical name of the Font.
    String fontAtChange = textArea.getName();
     textArea.setFont(new Font(fontAtChange, Font.PLAIN, 20));
    textArea.setText(fontAtChange);
    }

However it just gives me "text0" instead of my default which I defined as
textArea.setFont(new Font(cou, Font.PLAIN, 12));
// cou is defined as "fontLogicalName.add(new MenuItem(cou));" which in turn
is taken from
"private String cou = new String("Courier");"

Can anybody Help I am desperate

Cheers
