Re: fonts for listbox

1. Try sending the control a WM_SETFONT message:

  hControl WM_SETFONT hFont FALSE SendMessage DROP

2. A SwiftForth dialog creates a standard Windows dialog template
(structure) in memory which contains the name and size of the font.
Windows creates the font when the dialog is invoked.

Subject: [sftalk] fonts for listbox

1. I want to set the font in a listbox that is a child window, not in a
Dialog box.
Trying to use GetStockObject, SelectObject, with the fonts listed in the
API ( ANSI_VAR_FONT) etc doesn't get me anywhere.
Suggestions welcome.

2. When a Dialog box uses
   (Font 8, Ms Sans Serif)
 is this a stock font or is it being created by SF ?

Thanks,
Anil
