[Webcompmath-devel] font size

[Tom D. <to...@do...>]

Folks,

I've checked in changes to the configurable applets that let you set the 
font size, which is useful in projecting the applets on a screen (which 
I've been doing in my precalculus class lately). I added a FontSize 
parameter to GenericGraphApplet, Evaluator, and ScatterPlotApplet that sets 
all user interface elements to the specified font size. I also added a new 
class, AppletUtilities, which contains one static method used to change the 
fonts (and could hold other such methods in the future).

The webcompmath classes that inherit from Swing components (e.g., 
ExpressionInput, etc) can have their fonts set directly, so finer-grained 
control over font sizes can already be had for programmers building applets 
by hand (or using the visual editor and setting font properties). There are 
a couple of exceptions (LimitControlPanel being one), and I plan to enhance 
these with a setFont() method that just calls the setFont methods of the 
child components.

I've also updated the web pages for these applets in the website module 
under sourceforge CVS.
