Hi all,
I was wondering why this code makes me pick the font twice? I pick a
font, click ok, and the dialog box pops up again, pick a font, click
ok, and then it excepts it.
I commented out the original line an replace it with...

      GraphicsEnvironment environment =
          GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
      String fontNames[] = environment.getAvailableFontFamilyNames();

      Object selection = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(
     null,
     "Choose one", "Input",
     JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE,
     null, fontNames, fontNames[0]);
       Font f = new Font((String) selection, Font.BOLD, 36);
      g2.setFont(f);

Thanks
Praxis
