What is the default font and size for buttons.
I think it's Arial but I can't get the size. It seems it's between 13px and 14px.
For those curious, I'm imitating the look and feel of the html button in an applet.

Thanks!

I thought it was set depending on your personal settings.
(Like a setting in IE for non formatted text)
Tools>Internet Options>Fonts
I Think most default is Times New Roman(bleh) :D

For the text in the document, it's Times New Roman but for button, obviously it's not. The font I want is the same as the font in the textarea where you type your post here in codingforums.

As cg9com said, the default is user controlled;

But if you want to specify it - the textboxes here use verdana

There isn't really one windows default, it's different for different versions. Why do you need to know?

Sorry I missed that; I think it's 13px arial, but I wouldn't swear it.
