Hi!

I would like to display a message in a dilog box with a specific font i cant do it!

1) tk_messageDialogBox does not have a -font option
2) Bwidget MessageDlg has -font but it has not effect in my case.

Thanks!
 
setting the line below solves the problem
option add *Dialog.msg.font {Helvetica 10} userDefault

BUT

I had previously set
option add *font -adobe-helvetica-b*-r*-*--14-*-75-75-*-*-iso8859-1
to change all the texts for the GUI.
Even if I set
option add *Dialog.msg.font {Helvetica 10} userDefault
just after the one above it is not taken into account.

What should I do then?

 
I solved the problem using userdefault for both

option add *font -adobe-helvetica-b*-r*-*--14-*-75-75-*-*-iso8859-1 userDefault
option add *Dialog.msg.font {Helvetica 10} userDefault

What is the difference between widget and userfault?
