Description
Using the dropdown menu for the family font uses the cursor location. I think it would make more sense to use the selected text. At the moment, if text is selected, it's action even depends on what direction the text was selected.
For example:
1 - select text on a LaTeX document (from right to left) 2 - use the drop down menu to select family font 3 - the family font is placed at the FRONT of the selected rtext 4 - select text on a LaTeX document (from left to right) 5 - use the drop down menu to select family font 6 - the family font is placed at the END of the selected rtext
I think it would be more intuitive if the family font command would wrap the actual selected text.
