I have seen and accepted issue 18 as a requested enhancement.

There is a possible work-round using the current version of G4P. Add a tab to your processing sketch, call it DropListPlus (or something similar) then copy and paste the code below into the tab. Now use the GDropListPlus class instead of the GDropList.

DropListPlus.pde

1. public class GDropListPlus extends GDropList {
2. 
   
3.   public GDropListPlus(PApplet theApplet, float p0, float p1, float p2, float p3) {
4.     super(theApplet, p0, p1, p2, p3);
5.   }
6. 
   
7.   public GDropListPlus(PApplet theApplet, float p0, float p1, float p2, float p3, int dropListMaxSize) {
8.     super(theApplet, p0, p1, p2, p3, dropListMaxSize);
9.   }
10. 
    
11.   public void setFont(Font font) {
12.     if (font != null && font != localFont && buffer != null) {
13.       localFont = font;
14.       buffer.g2.setFont(localFont);
15.       bufferInvalid = true;
16.     }
17.   }
18. }

Hi Quarks,

Thanks man!
This really rocks.
Thanks for the super-fast reply. Much appreciated.

This is now fixed with G4P v3.3 see here
