1) You have chosen the arrangement of components one after another: from left to right. And their description and their sequence simply screams that there IS a link between them and one affects the other. BUT! No matter how many times I just remove and put the check mark back - nothing happens.
But as soon as I click the button to enter the font selection dialog, the checkmark BEFORE the button suddenly appears under some
kind of action(sub-logic). So maybe then you will change their order? First the button, and then the "default" checkbox setting and label?
And this code (about check/uncheck the default state) should be triggered IMMEDIATELY, and not only after pressing the OK button for
the entire dialog!

2) See answer 1. The ORDER and a hidden but readable, as if between the lines, dependency between objects: That's the main reason.

3) If you re-read the question again, then its essence was about the complete absence of a description of the default font!
About the fact that I only see dots, dots, dots and do not understand anything about the default choice. So it exists or it doesn’t?
And if there is, then WHAT is it?

4) See answer 3. Again. And try to understand my initial question, please.

5) " It's to show what will be saved in the wincmd.ini. " - That's great! You have described the essence of the action very clearly.
But its benefits will be used only in the TC's code itself! in the application itself!! But the user remains completely confused
about what and why it is so strangely rendered here.
I repeat once again - although I am not even sure that this will be accepted and understandable - the end-user should be
given the opportunity to read on his own! language!
In other words, it is necessary to describe all the options and the name of the selected font in a human way!
And because, of course, we understand that there is no place for this in the button itself - that's why we need to use
the possibilities of tooltips! So write it out in them:
Font Family
Font Style (Regular, Italic, Bold)
Font Size
Font Weight
Codepage
+ .....
Moreover, it will be very useful to display all this text in this chosen font!

P.S. Just as an example. I can see the value 255 in this text line - but I do not remember WHAT does it means!!!
And EVEN IF I will open the font choosing dialog - I WILL NOT find in it the explanation - WHAT 255 means.
Yes - here on a forum I will find it: "I have selected to use OEM/DOS charset here".
But that's not a proper places for searching such info. I should by my eyes to see the explanations somewhere.
On this form! IMMEDIATELY! And tooltips - are the perfect place for that!
