WAISS TWPopOutFntCBox Beta Version 1.0
Pop Out Font Combo Box Component for Delphi


  TWPopPutFntCbox is a Corel draw type font combo box that pops out a
  window with a preview of the curent font when the list portion of the
  box is droped down. The Preview updates itself to the correct font
  when the mouse or the selection is moved over a font name in the drop 
  down portion of the box. The Text to show in the pop up box can either
  be set at dsign time or run time or can automaticlly be the selected 
  text from a TCustomEdit Component attache to the AttachedEdit Property.
  The component also has a MoveUsedToTop Property, that when enabled will
  move the selected font to the top of the list and will draw a double line
  to indicate where the seperation between the regular fonts and the MRU
  Fonts are. All other asspects of the component are highly configurable.
