Hi Cecil, Setting fonts under Seesaw isn't the most intuitive option, so you'd have to dig into Swing core for this and investigate java.swing.UIManager documentation.
Here is a function that I often use in my applications: (defn set-font "Set default font for the whole Swing application. Make sure to call it before UI was shown." [name size] (let [res (FontUIResource. name Font/PLAIN size) what ["Button.font" "ToggleButton.font" "RadioButton.font" "CheckBox.font" "ColorChooser.font" "ComboBox.font" "Label.font" "List.font" "MenuBar.font" "MenuItem.font" "RadioButtonMenuItem.font" "CheckBoxMenuItem.font" "Menu.font" "PopupMenu.font" "OptionPane.font" "Panel.font" "ProgressBar.font" "ScrollPane.font" "Viewport.font" "TabbedPane.font" "Table.font" "TableHeader.font" "TextField.font" "PasswordField.font" "TextArea.font" "TextPane.font" "EditorPane.font" "TitledBorder.font" "ToolBar.font" "ToolTip.font" "Tree.font"]] (doseq [key what] (UIManager/put key res)))) I use it like: (defn runner [] (seesaw/native!) (seesaw/invoke-later (set-font "Sans Serif" 11) (seesaw/show! <here-comes-form-builder>))) Best, Sanel On Wednesday, October 5, 2016 at 10:47:14 AM UTC+2, Cecil Westerhof wrote: > > I already asked it on Clojure-seesaw, but the last three months there > has been no activity there.
