Re: Changing control font size

[Fred Kiefer]

Ignore that list. The only defined font sizes in the defaults are 
@„NSFontSize“, @„NSLabelFontSize“ and @„NSSmallFontSize“. You have to use these 
strings if you want to set this programmatically but most likely it is easier 
to set them via the defaults file once.

Hope this helps,
Fred
