can wxFont be created from native handle ? (msw)

[Harry]

Vadim, thanks for the answer.
It almost works, except that wxNativeFontInfo has no constructor with 
LOGFONT.
I found an undocumented function in fontutil.cpp which I use as follows:

extern wxFont wxCreateFontFromLogFont(const LOGFONT *logFont);

wxFont CreateFontFromHFONT(HFONT hfont)
{
    LOGFONT   lf;
    ::GetObject(hfont, sizeof lf, &lf);
    return wxCreateFontFromLogFont(&lf);
}

Regards
Harry
