So if I wanted to change the font size of a label I would have to do
programatically, or write my own sub class? There is no way in IB
to set the label to something like bold?
I haven't been reading this thread, but you can change the font of any
control with the font panel in Interface Builder.
To make a label bold, add one to a document, select it, bring up the
font panel, and change the font.

I will check out the control size, that might help me out for what I
am thinking.
Thanks for all your help!!

How do I change the font that is used for all NSLabels,
NSTextFields, etc..? Basically I want to make the default font
smaller for all text within my application, not the menu bar or
anything outside my application, just my views, and windows.. Is
this done through skinning or is this a global property that can
be set?
There is no global switch to get what you're asking for, and
typically that's not what you want either (you might want to have
*most* of your controls in one particular size, but very rarely all
of them). You, the programmer or interface designer, will have to
manually make sure that all controls in your interface is using the
font size you want.
You might want to look at the documentation for NSControlSize. This
is a way to easily make controls appear at one of a predefined set
of sizes. You can set this property from Interface Builder or in
code. If you set it from code, you might also have to set the font
size separately (I don't remember, and don't think, that it's
updated automatically for you).
