Use the Bison font for password entry
Q. How to implement a password entry field in a GenText object? A. There's a font that displays "*" no matter which character you type. It is the 13 point Bison font. You can set the character attributes of the GenText object using FID_BISON. @chunk VisTextCharAttr Bison13CharAttr = CHAR_ATTR_FONT_SIZE(FID_BISON, 13); You might also consider making sure the text object does not allow cut/copy so the password can not be copied to the clipboard and pasted somewhere else as another font (thus displaying the password).
