Calling ChooseFont() with .Flags = CF_EFFECTS will allow the user to
choose a color for the font, but the choice is limited to 16 colors.
Is there a way to extend the choice to more colors?

There's always a way (subclassing, custom dialog etc), but it's common
to use ChooseColor() dialog for such a purpose.

Thanks for the answer.

I was hoping for an easy way to do both in one, but if that requires
subclassing and stuff, I guess ChooseColor() will be easier.
