Does anyone have a good strategy for adhering to Windows Design Guidelines with Windows Forms development in Visual Studio (2008)
For example just tring to adhere to font recommendations in Windows XP you have to know the system default font should be Tahoma, Verdana should be used for Title bars in floating windows and Trebuchet MS should be used in the Title bar of Windows....sigh...I assume its all different for Vista :-(
And of course what Visual Studio gives by default is a brain dead Microsoft Sans Serif.
So whats the best way to design, is there a plugin available that will help me, do I simply have to put up with sitting with the design guide open and manually do this. (painful)
Edit: Thanks for the visual styles suggestion, but that won't cut the mustard unfortunately (in fact Enable Visual Styles is the default in Visual Studio 2008) the XP look and feel winforms controls still use the microsoft sans serif font by default.
