How do you get Text Properties of text already on the map?

Last night, i was up late, building a map, started sorting out the Font/Size/Etc of the lables I wanted to put on the map. Got one label down, and didn't write down the name of the font I used. >=-( Now I'm flipping through every font name to see if I can find the same font. It was a font from the "More Fonts" selection. Is there an easier way to figure out the name of the font already used by a piece of Text on my map?

Use List (From the Info menu) on it. It will list all the properties of the text, including font name and size.
(Remember that text needs to be selected by clicking on it's baseline)

One sneaky way to do it is to click KEEP and select the baseline of the font. That sets the current text properties to that of the text you select.
