IDL Menu Fonts [message #8072] Tue, 04 February 1997 00:00

Got a question about how to change the font for the elements in a
CW_PDMENU. We are using IDL 4.0 in a Windows NT 4.0 PC. I
create a base with a Mbar keyword followed by a bunch of other
widget element declarations (text, buttons etc). I use a:

WIDGET_CONTROL, tlbid, Default_font='arial*16'

immediately after the base declaration to change the font in the
base. All the widget elements in the base behave nicely,
realized in arial*16 font, but the elements I load into the Mbar
base ID stick with the NT defined menubar font (as set in the
Control Panel - Display utility).

I have also tried setting the FONT keyword for the CW_PDMENU
call. No change. I have tried a: WIDGET_CONTROL, menu_base,
Default_font='arial*16' command too. No change.

I am starting to think that it is a problem with NT4.0 ? just
because, nothing I do seems to affect the font used in the
menubar.

Any thoughts would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
