Still about porting a PC Office 2000 application onto Macintosh Excel 2004
I have noticed that all dialogs (templates) where not readable. After
loading, I attempted to change the text fonts. Curiously, the fonts
displayed where very small (some smaller than 8 pt!), but when the template
was executed, either in test mode or for real in the application, the font
was finally set to the normal (and readable) default. The result was that I
had to toggle between test mode and design mode to be able to see what I was
doing. I guess this is caused by the fact that the fonts used on Windows
dialogs do not exist on the Mac and the default replacement is wrong. Is
there a way to convert these template to the real OS default fonts, so that
a future redesign of the dialogs be as easy as it should be?
Cheers,
Didier
