In the WordPad sample that is currently shipping with BCGControlBar Standard Edition, you'll find that if you type some text using the default font size then change some of the text to font size "8.5" (or any other size that isn't in the font dropdown list) the font will change, but when you select this newly formatted text the font size combo in the format bar does not update with the correct size. I tracked down the problem to the following function in bcgcontrolbar: "void CBCGToolbarFontSizeCombo::SetTwipSize(int nTwips)" which sets the text in the combo using SetWindowText when the contained list doesn't have the twip size given. The call to SetWindowText appears to do nothing.
I've looked into this because my own application needs this to work. Does anyone at BCGSoft have any ideas? Or has anyone else found a workaround for this?
