PopupMenu control: How to change font size of body text?

PopupMenu has the parameter fsize to change the font size of the title.  Is there a way to change the font size of the body text (the text in the pull-down menu)?  I'd like the size of the title text and the body text to be the same, but haven't found a way to do that.

Not for one specific PopupMenu control.

Perhaps the DefaultGUIFont operation's popup setting might be of assistance.

Thanks for the reply.  I've tried DefaultGUIFont, but it doesn't apply to the font size of PopupMenu body text.  (At least not for Igor 7.08 on Windows 7.)

Here's an example.  The title "Choose a color:" is font size 30, but the text in the pull-down menu isn't:

Function PopupFontDemo()
    NewPanel
    DefaultGuiFont all={"Arial",30,0}
    PopupMenu popup0, value="Red;Green;Blue;", title="Choose a color:"
End

Are you just wanting larger controls?

Here's what I use for that:

Window Panel0() : Panel
    PauseUpdate; Silent 1       // building window...
    NewPanel /W=(594,87,894,287)
    DefaultGuiFont/W=#/Mac popup={"_IgorLarge",13,0},all={"_IgorLarge",13,0}
    DefaultGuiFont/W=#/Win popup={"_IgorLarge",0,0},all={"_IgorLarge",0,0}
    PopupMenu popup0,pos={34.00,33.00},size={165.00,24.00},title="Choose a color:"
    PopupMenu popup0,mode=2,popvalue="Green",value= #"\"Red;Green;Blue;\""
EndMacro
