I have tried this on a few installations of the 3.1.3 SDK.

When I add a label to my view, I would like to change the font to something like Futura. I know how to change the font, but, for some reason, it does not show that it is changed. ONLY when I edit the label by double clicking, do I see my new font. And, this is the only time that I do get to see the new font, is when editing the label.

Why does this happen? How can I change the font of my labels, and have it show up? Why would I care to have the font changed when I edit the label?!

A: 

Same problem here... anyone know why?

Sorry, I should have replied to my own question. It is because the iPhone only have a few system fonts installed. So something like Future is not on the iPhone.

A: 

There are only a few system fonts installed on the iPhone. So when you try to use a non standard font, ala Future, it will not work, because that is no installed on the iPhone.
