WM_SETFONT behaviour changed between Win7 and Win10

[jj2007]

invoke SendMessage, hControl, WM_SETFONT, hFont, 0

That worked fine in Windows 7, but Windows 10 requires 1 as redraw flag

[NoCforMe]

Not sure I understand; W10 requires redrawFlag=TRUE in order to set the font at all?

That certainly seems contrary to the documented behavior.

Not sure I understand;

It appears that Microsoft no longer believes in backward compatibility. I have not tested this myself, though. If that is correct, another reason to avoid Windows 10 and above.
