How to iterate over fonts in Photoshop without selection?

Question

Design

The standard font enumeration scheme described on most resources sounds like this:

1. Create Text Layer
   
2. Select text
   
3. Click on the font panel in the field with the name of the font
   
4. Scroll through fonts with cursor keys
   

It seems to me, or is this method inconvenient because when iterating over fonts, we see them selected with inverted colors (see figure)? And every time it seems that you have found a suitable font, you need to deselect it to check how it looks in real color with the rest of the layers, and then repeat steps 2-4 Question: is it possible to iterate over fonts without selecting text?
