    TITLE  :  Selecting fonts in RW, when using the new BWCC.DLL




  When Resource Workshop (RW) is used with the newest versions of
  BWCC.DLL (dated after March 9 1992), you may see a problem when
  you try to select a different font for your bitmaps, icons, and
  dialogs.  Specifically, the sample font on the bottom of the Font
  Select dialog does not dynamically change when another font,
  size, or style is selected.

  This is a known problem with RW and can easily be remedied by
  changing a resource attribute.  This document will explain how to
  patch your copy of RW to fix this display problem.

  1.   Make a copy of the file WORKSHOP.EXE, located in your BIN
       directory.  Name the copy WORKNEW.EXE, for example.  This
       file is the main module of RW, and contains the resource you
       need to change.

  2.   Run RW, and load the file WORKNEW.EXE.

  3.   Open the dialog resource "20000" located in the DIALOG
       section in the WORKNEW.EXE project window.

  4.   Click once on the alphabet string to highlight the static
       text, Control ID 108.  Then hit <Ctrl><Enter> or
       <Ctrl><Doubleclick> to bring up the Generic Control Style
       dialog.

  5.   Change the Class from "STATIC" to "BORSTATIC" and press OK.

  6.   Close the Dialog Editor, save the project WORKNEW.EXE, and
       exit RW.

  7.   Run the program WORKNEW.EXE and invoke the bitmap, icon, or
       dialog editor.  If you're using the bitmap or icon editor,
       select Text | Fonts on the menu to bring up the Font Select
       dialog.  If you're using the dialog editor, doubleclick on
       the new dialog caption and select Fonts.

  8.   If you did the previous steps correctly, you should see the
       alphabet string change appearance as you select a different
       Face Name, Size, or Style.  If the string does not change,
       the previous steps were not done correctly.

  9.   After you've verified that the steps were done correctly,
       delete WORKSHOP.EXE or rename it to WORKSHOP.BAK.  Then
       rename WORKNEW.EXE to WORKSHOP.EXE.
