Easier way to preview fonts?

[Anonymous]

Adding basic text to sketches and getting frustrated with the font menu.  Is there a way to scroll down the fonts and have them change my text so I get a preview instead of manually clicking through each one?  If not is there a list or a file I can get of all the available fonts and their examples that I can quickly reference?  Thank you.

I ran into this same issue.  Not an ideal solution, but I just opened Microsoft Word and went through the fonts in there to preview, then moved back over to Fusion 360 once I found the one I wanted.

Hey thanks, didn't realize they shared the same font names. I'll try that.

fonts share the same name everywhere.   they are fonts.

As pointed before, I like to wotk with fonts in other software. In my case I use a more intrincate fonts not well supported in Fusion, so I test and preview them in CorelDRAW and export as SVG.

Of course there are more steps in this workflow, but it works better for me than struggling with some texts inside Fusion.

Has to be the number 1 feature asked for over and over again since day one but yet always ignored..better text tools! I'll never understand this...

In Windows operating system computers, simply go to the Control Panel, select Fonts, set the preview to Large Icons and preview all very easily.  Fusion 360 uses Windows fonts.  Not sure where MAC stores fonts but I am sure there is something similar.
