Here's the problem: I'm developing away here and I need to use more than one font in the editable text fields in my modeless dialog box. Now I sure like using IsDialogEvent and DialogSelect and all that (meaning, I *don't* want to do it all myself -- drawing a window, placing controls, checking for mousedowns and keydowns etc.) but I can't change my fonts on the fly. I NEED one field to be in a different font than the other editable and static thingies. And please don't tell me about SetDAFont because I don't want to change everything ;> Is this *truly* an example of apple working so hard for me that I have to start from scratch in order to get around them? Hasn't *somebody* come up with a neat hack to solve this problem.
