  Mmm. That's what 2.6 does also. Perhaps there's a bug in 2.7.4?

Johan, when you say (in (2)) "...where the text entered appears", does 
anything also appear in the 'font settings' window as you enter text?

  No, I didn't touch the Font field. The only thing that happened in 
that window was that any text entered appeared there in the top left-
hand field (but - sadly - not in the 'dynamic' field).
