Cassio Posted April 18, 2003 Posted April 18, 2003 Is there a default recomended font to use in buttons on a window form so it looks like other Windows applications? Thanks. Quote Stream of Consciousness (My blog)
Moderators Robby Posted April 18, 2003 Moderators Posted April 18, 2003 It should be the one that is set as default. Quote Visit...Bassic Software
Cassio Posted April 18, 2003 Author Posted April 18, 2003 Do you think it would be weird if I made it bold? Quote Stream of Consciousness (My blog)
Moderators Robby Posted April 18, 2003 Moderators Posted April 18, 2003 I may be wrong (I haven't attempted this with .NET) but when you use a system font and the user has selected to change the style, (Theme/Scheme) his prefered font should take over. I don't know how Bold would affect this. OR, I may be wrong about the entire thing. You can try it though. Quote Visit...Bassic Software
iebidan Posted April 19, 2003 Posted April 19, 2003 If you want t give your app a look more like Windows XP, you can follow the design guides Microsoft has about using fonts and colors. I have the file, but it's 5.1 Mb, so if anyone is interested in having this please mail me at battousai@prodigy.net.mx Regards Quote Fat kids are harder to kidnap
Moderators Robby Posted April 19, 2003 Moderators Posted April 19, 2003 iebidan: Can you provide a link to Microsoft's site where one can download it? Quote Visit...Bassic Software
iebidan Posted April 19, 2003 Posted April 19, 2003 The problem is I don't remember from where I got this file... the only thing I can do is send it thru mail (due size). Regards Quote Fat kids are harder to kidnap
