General UI service

The IDE provides a convenient and uniform means for all extensions to get the IDE font and caption, in the form of a service called “IaaGeneralUIService”. It has two properties as explained below.

• IDEFont – All IDE extensions should use this property to have uniform font all cross IDE, which gives seamless look and feel.

• IDECaption – All IDE extensions use this caption for all message boxes and dialogs, which provides “ArchestrA IDE” as the title. This gives IDE centralized control over caption of all message boxes and dialogs.
