WELL RATS!!!!!!
Guys, I'd like to use the array method, but I did about an hour of auto testing and wrote something bare bones to illustrate that method does have a memory problem. This code crashed in about 10-minutes...

I know you mentioned there was no need to free the fonts with an array model, so what do you think is the cause behind the memory build up here? Is it is just some over-use situation from rapid repetitive screen / font changing, or a leak?

Code: (Select All)

fontstyle$ = "monospace"
DIM font(10 TO 32) AS LONG
FOR i = 10 TO 32 STEP 2

NEXT
WIDTH 30, 25
IF _SCREENEXISTS THEN _SCREENMOVE 0, 0
adj = 2: a = 10: b = 32
DO
_LIMIT 30
FOR i = a TO b STEP adj
_FONT font(i)
PRINT i; font(i)
WHILE _MOUSEINPUT: WEND
IF _MOUSEBUTTON(1) THEN END
NEXT
adj = -adj: SWAP a, b
