The default values of the FontSize, FontName, and FontBold properties of command buttons differs between East Asian versions of Visual FoxPro and other versions of Visual FoxPro 3.0 and 3.0b.

MORE INFORMATION

The following table describes how the FontName, FontBold, and FontSize default values between Far East versions and the versions offered in other countries.

Property	World	East Asia
*FontName*	Arial	Country specific
*FontBold*	.T.	.F.
*FontSize*	10	9

The following code displays the FontName, FontBold, and FontSize property values on the Visual FoxPro desktop. The different property values between versions may be of concern if developing an international version of an application. These differences could potentially cause a display problem , such as, "Position is off of screen" message, if the variance is not taken into account.

   tform = CreateObject("form")
   tform.AddObject("C1","commandbutton")
   ACTIVATE SCREEN
   ? "Fontname of commandbutton = "
   ?? tform.c1.FontName
   ? "Fontsize of commandbutton = "
   ?? tform.c1.FontSize
   ? "Fontbold of commandbutton = "
   ?? tform.c1.FontBold
