Inside Macintosh volume 5 describes the ictb resource, with which one can control the color and font of individual dialog items. However, ResEdit offers nothing but hex for editing them. Does anyone have tools to help? (A ResEdit template, a better dialog editor, or a recommendation for a product?) Ken Brooks

Just select an item in the DLOG, then pull the "Item" menu down to the "Colors and Text Styles…" command. Resorcerer costs $256, but the additional functionality and ease of use over ResEdit is worth at least that much. Steve
