I recently started playing a bit with the Dialog-library and stumbled across the question, whether custom fonts can be easily used with it or not. Simply adding a

Code: Select all

SetGadgetFont(#PB_Default,FontID(LoadFont(#PB_Any,"Times New Roman",16)))
into the program before any dialog is created had the desired effect and so far I couldn't find bugs.
Now I took a deeper look into the helpfile, but I couldn't find information about this, neither the section "Dialog" nor the part about "SetGagdetFont" mentions that this is working.

In conclusion I think this wish has been fullfilled and this thread can be marked as "closed", but the helpfile should get some extra lines explaining how setting the font in a dialog works without having to set all gadgets manually.
