Changing font on custom pages header
I'm using MUI_HEADER_TEXT to set a header on a custom page. I can get a pointer to the controls that are included from my ini file, but I'm struggling to do the same with the header text. I used Resource Hacker and it looks like the id is 1037. So, I've tried the following:

Function DoPrefacePage
        !insertmacro MUI_HEADER_TEXT "text" "subtext"
        !insertmacro MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_INITDIALOG "preface.ini"
        Pop $HWND
        
        GetDlgItem $DLGITEM $HWND 1200
        CreateFont $FONT "Tahoma" 12 900
        SendMessage $DLGITEM ${WM_SETFONT} $FONT 0

        GetDlgItem $DLGITEM $HWND 1037
        SetCtlColors $DLGITEM 0xFF0000 0x00FF00
        SendMessage $DLGITEM ${WM_SETFONT} $FONT 0

        !insertmacro MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_SHOW
FunctionEnd

This works for the first control (a label), but fails for the header text. Do I have the wrong id? Is the header text different from the other controls?

Any help is appreciated.

Use
GetDlgItem $DLGITEM $HWNDPARENT 1037
