Does anybody know a way to display dialogs with other (smaller) fonts than Chicago 12 like Geneva 10 or Geneva 9? I am looking for a way to change the text attributes of dialog items like radio buttons or check boxes directly. I have tried this by adding PICTs to respective dialogs carrying the actual text in small fonts, however, this causes my resources to get quite big. As well, if a PICT is larger than certain dialog items, those items behind that PICT are no longer choosable. I also thought about actually drawing text directly into a dialog window, but then this part only gets updated if I define it as a user item. Again if I define it as a user item and this item is bigger than certain other dialog items, these items are not choosable. Can anybody help out with a smart technique….? Thanks for any ideas/help. Best regards Ulli
