idlgrtext fixed-width font [message #74113]

Hi there,

I have an object graphics window where I am displaying text using
idlgrtext objects.
I'm using the default Helvetica 12 font for this.

The text strings constantly change (one, for instance writes the UT of
the current image)
- and are very 'jumpy' as they change - presumably because the various
characters in Helvetica 12
are not fixed-width.

Does anyone know a fixed-width font I can use to sort this out - or is
there another solution ?
At present, if build an animation - all of the text just jumps around.

Thanks

George.
