I need to set the font of several controls, labels, etc. at runtime (I'm 
using a custom font that has some mathematical characters in it: pi, 
theta, etc.). Right now I'm just setting it directly:

aControlPointer->font = kMathFontID;

and that seems to work fine on all the current OS's. But it makes me 
nervous: the docs specifically say not to directly set the fields of 
structures like this. How else can I do it? (Preferably in a fashion that 
won't break in the future: this is a commercial app.)

Ideally, I'd set the font of the control in constructor, but as far as I 
can tell, there's no way to get my custom font into the resource file in 
a way that Constructor will recognize.

Any help appreciated.
