Is there a way to change the default font?

-----------------------------------

I've been using Font.Draw for everything I type, and so far those were only a few words--but now I have more than a few large paragraphs to deal with. Is Font.Draw the only way to change the font that I have to use it everytime I make a new line, or is there a way I can write it all without using it or only once?

Thankyou~

yes , Font.Draw is the only way to draw fonts, 

however if you wish to change the font for displaying output from a put command 

i.e put "Whatever"

you can go under settings and change the default display font. 

if you want to change a font usng Font.Draw then


var FontID  : int

FontID := Font.New ("Arial:30")

Font.Draw ("Ba, text",100,100,FontID,12)

% free the font
Font.Free (FontID) % i'm not sure if this is how 
% to free a font maybe try FontID := Font.Free

% assign new font
FontID := Font.New ("System:20")

% draw new font
Font.Draw ("Different text", 100,10,FontID, 10)

%% you should always free your font after use
% at the end of program or something



- hope that helps man
