[jadhav123]

Hello all, I have created static text dynamically on a dialog box. But it is displaying in different font. How to change the font to normal static text. Thanks in advance Regards, Aj

First change the id of the static control from IDC_STATIC to some thing else say IDC_STATIC_NAME. Then call GetDlgItem( IDC_STATIC_NAME)->SetFont(.. ) to change the font.

You can use GetFont and SetFont for getting and setting fonts. normally the child controls shows the font you have specfied in resource file. i.e. Dialog's font.

You can use like this m_YourControl.SetFont(GetFont()); or you can use CreateFont

If you are programming in plain win32, you will have to send a WM_SETFONT to the control to change the font. Vipin http://www.explorewindows.com/Blogs

I show an example of this in the Extras section of this article.
