Is it possible to change Font.Size in tabPages?

I got an error that this property is readOnly. Is it possible to change the font size in a tabPage It is very inconvenient to have just one size and it is very large as it is.

Thanks.

    You need to change the font for the tab page to change the size.



    Font fnt = new Font(tabPage2.Font.FontFamily, 12);
    tabPage2.Font = fnt;

    Thanks boban.s. I just like tabControls:) Well, I sort of solved the problem by redefining it.

    I have 6 pages already in place before I start generating those new, expendable ones. I found out that no matter what you do you cannor change the font setting defined on the FIRST tabpage. Therefore I just changed the font size on the first page and it gave me pretty much what I wanted. The change has to be done in the project explorer on the first tabPage1 property but not among collections of tabControl--over there it does not do anything either.

    So I am done with it.

    Thanks.

    Probably cracking will not go that easy, it is posible but not as setting a property. You will nead to play with graphic methods, DrawItem and ....
    Why not use buttons and pannels instead of tabcontrol.

    Nope, it does not work. I also tried to define the font via System.Drawning namespace like:

    Font fnt = new System.Drawing.Font ( "Microsoft Sans Serif", 7.8F, System.Drawing.FontStyle.Bold, System.Drawing.GraphicsUnit.Point, (( byte )(0)) );

    tb1.Font = fnt;

    It take the statements but the font remains the same. Alas.

    Thanks.

    Thank you, Ken.

    I just tried it. Amazingly it did not do a thing. It did not change the size at all. I put the size down to 9 because I need really small fonts. It took both statements all right though. There should be some additional secret in there but what

    Thanks a lot. I think I am very close to cracking it.

    Many thanks.
