I have "Check Full Screen" and "UnCheck Full Screen" menu items in my app and thought 
it might be cool to display the check and uncheck symbols (as seen in the Symbol11 
font) rather than the respective words.  This may be considered user-unfriendly but I 
figured I could try it.  

I augmented the standard font with the two characters from Symbol11 using the PilRC 
codewarrior plug-in and piBuilder and compiled a test.  Doing a WinDrawChar with the 
new characters worked and I figured the current font would be used when creating the 
menu. Nope.

I haven't been able to find any information that explicitly states that you can't 
change the font.  Is there an "official" way to change the menu font (other than 
sysTrapMenuDrawMenu)?  

If not, is there an OS5 friendly way to do it?

Again, this isn't very important but it'd be interesting to know.

Thanks,
Mike
