I found this long time ago in MathGroup (but now I cannot find the exact link there). <pre><code>fontlist = FE`Evaluate[FEPrivate`GetPopupList["MenuListFonts"]] fontlist /. Rule[x_, y_] -> Style[x, 20, FontFamily -> y] </code></pre> <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/cppgT.png" alt="Mma Fonts"> EDIT: The source is Wolfram's John Fultz. Here is the MathGroup link: <a href="http://forums.wolfram.com/mathgroup/archive/2009/Jan/msg00091.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">V7 FrontEndTokens</a> EDIT 2: On windows, if you don't have a highlighted selection, the default seems to be whereever the cursor moves after the command <code>FrontEndExecute[FrontEndToken["FontPanel"]]</code> is executed. By default it is the next cell. Very first keyboard entry you type after the dialog return is styled with the font selection you make in the font dialog. So, if you execute <pre><code>SelectionMove[InputNotebook[], After, Notebook]; FrontEndExecute[FrontEndToken["FontPanel"]] </code></pre> and start typing your font dialog settings will apply. However, any mouse move before a keyboard entry destroys the font settings. EDIT 3: Using Silvia's idea about using an invisible notebook, but instead writing to a new cell in the current notebook also works. Steps: Move selection to a new cell that is closed, write something, invoke the font panel, capture the font options of the cell, delete the cell, and return the captured font options: <pre><code> fontPanelReturn[] := {SelectionMove[EvaluationNotebook[], After, Notebook]; NotebookWrite[EvaluationNotebook[], Cell["text", ShowCellBracket -> False, CellOpen -> False, Magnification -> 0]]; SelectionMove[EvaluationNotebook[], Before, CellContents]; SelectionMove[EvaluationNotebook[], All, Word]; FrontEndExecute[FrontEndToken["FontPanel"]]; fontops = AbsoluteOptions[ NotebookSelection[EvaluationNotebook[]], {FontColor, FontFamily, FontProperties, FontSize, FontSlant, FontTracking, FontVariations, FontWeight, Background}]; NotebookDelete[EvaluationNotebook[]]; SelectionMove[EvaluationNotebook[], Next, Cell]; fontops} </code></pre> Using as <pre><code> fontPanelReturn[] </code></pre> gives, (for example) <pre><code> {{Background -> None, FontColor -> Automatic, FontFamily -> "Trebuchet MS", FontProperties -> {"FontMonospaced" -> Automatic, "FontSerifed" -> Automatic, "ScreenResolution" -> 72}, FontSize -> 24, FontSlant -> "Italic", FontTracking -> "Plain", FontVariations -> {"CapsType" -> Normal, "CompatibilityType" -> Normal, "Masked" -> False, "Outline" -> False, "RotationAngle" -> 0, "Shadow" -> False, "StrikeThrough" -> False, "Underline" -> False}, FontWeight -> "Bold"}} </code></pre> EDIT 4: You get the same result if you change Silvia's code so that you select the cell before invoking the font panel dialog and then capturing the cell's font options (rather than the notebook's): <pre><code> inputFontSettings[] := Module[{doc, opt}, doc = CreateDocument[TextCell["text"], WindowSelected -> False, Visible -> False]; SelectionMove[doc, Next, Cell]; FrontEndTokenExecute[doc, "FontPanel"]; opt = AbsoluteOptions[ NotebookSelection[doc], {FontColor, FontFamily, FontProperties, FontSize, FontSlant, FontTracking, FontVariations, FontWeight, Background}]; NotebookClose[doc]; opt] </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
