title: CoronaSDK Changing Font Style
body: <p>I have been looking around on the Corona documentation but I haven't seen anything to change the font style of a display.newText object. I know when you first create the object you can set the font parameter to be whatever you like. I know you can also do custom fonts by adding the font names to your build settings file. However what I want to do is change the fontstyle of text after the display.newText has already been declared. What I am trying is this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>local text = display.newText("title", display.contentWidth/2, display.contentHeight/2, native.systemFont, 12)
  
  text.font = "Comic Sans MS"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The code above does not give any errors in the terminal but the font does not change. 
  Any ideas how to do this?</p>
