Default Help: Theme Font

How can I do if I want my theme not to mess up the font, I want the User to select the font in the Options>Display>Screen Display>Font Family, so it is the user in the phone who finally decides which font fits best.

I thought it was picking up the 'System' Font in the list but it did not work.

For the user to be able to set the font, you must leave the font settings in Theme Builder at the default values when you create a theme. For OS6 themes, you will also need to leave the cursor coloring untouched under the list section on the globals page or the user fonts will not show on the messages screen.

You can go back to the original default font in a theme you have already made by right-clicking on the text next to the font settings box and selecting 'reset to default' from the drop-down menu.

You can change fonts for some components without effecting the user defined font setting.
Icons, active call, incoming call, unread message count and a few others.

Thank you very much, this is what I needed, I managed to find a font that fits me, but when opening an application menu, the cursor went wrong and with this its already fixed.

No problem. I discovered which fonts could be changed by trial and error.
I'm still working on a theme for myself. I'll let you know if I discover anything else.
