[Newbies] ballon help does not update

[Taeumel, Marcel]

Hi Christoph --

The classical balloon morphs should be deprecated.

#balloonFont, #balloonFont: and #defaultBalloonFont might be used to override UI theme properties in the new-style balloon morphs. Hmmm....

Best,
Marcel

Hi Pete,

thanks for the report. Apparently, the balloon font is only used for the classical balloons that you can see when you disable the preference "Use new-style help balloon morphs".

Attached is a patch that you can file-in into your image in order to use the same font for the new balloons as well. Not sure though whether we want this in the Trunk because the comment states this setter should be removed. @Marcel What do you think? :)

Best,
Christoph
