Hi again

I recived a great help here earlier to day and then i thought
it would be easy, but no i can't figure it out, so please help
me again.

As i say in the headline i want to change the size and
font of the default dialogs. And comming from BC++B
I thought that the below code would do the trick or at
least change the font size in the dialog, but nothing
happens.

How is it done ??

Thanks in advance
Asger

      int ScreenRess =
Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenResolution();
        //ScreenRess = 144 on my PC which is corect.

      JOptionPane Pane = new JOptionPane();

      if(ScreenRess > 100){
         Font TheFont = new Font(null);
         int FontSize = TheFont.getSize();

         if(ScreenRess < 140){
            FontSize += 4;
           }else{
            FontSize += 8;
           }
         Font NewFont = TheFont.deriveFont(FontSize);
         Pane.setFont(NewFont);
        }

      Pane.showMessageDialog(null,  "Testing FontSize",
                     "Setting font",
                     JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
