Cool - that���s handy to know it works somewhere (and in fact, it was when playing with GT-Inspector I noticed this - so that solution would work).��

I���m still curious how you do it in Morphic?
Like that:


Morph new
������ color: Color red;
������ hResizing: #shrinkWrap;
������ addMorph: (
������ ������ 'Hello World' asMorph
������ ������ ������ fontName: 'Open Sans' size: 75;
������ ������ ������ emphasis: TextEmphasis bold emphasisCode);
������ openInWorld

Using Roassal, I would do:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
v := RTView new.
s := RTMultiCompositeShape new.
s add: (RTBox new color: Color red; size: 500).
s add: (RTLabel new height: 70).
v add: (s elementOn: 'Hello World').
v open

Hi guys - I���m a bit stumped on how to create things in big text with a set background colour. I thought I understood - but it just doesn���t seem to work.
I was thinking I could create a container morph, set its background colour (which works), and then put a StringMorph inside it with a set font. This last bit I can���t get to work - I can do bold, but not a bigger font size. I���ve tried different things but am missing the magic sauce - can someone spot my mistake? Below, I���ve tried using a font name that I can see in the Pharo settings dialog but it doesn���t work? I also tried using LogicalFont with no success either.

tMorph := StringMorph new.
font1 := LogicalFont familyName: 'Arial' pointSize: 24.

tMorph contents: 'Hello World';
fontName: 'Open Sans' size: 24;
emphasis: TextEmphasis bold emphasisCode.

bMorph := Morph new
color: Color red;
addMorph: tMorph.

bMorph openInWorld.
