FontSelection

Description The GtkFontSelection widget lists the available fonts, styles and sizes, allowing the user to select a font. It is used in the GtkFontSelectionDialog widget to provide a dialog box for selecting fonts. To set the font which is initially selected, use gtk_font_selection_set_font_name(). To get the selected font use gtk_font_selection_get_font_name(). To change the text which is shown in the preview area, use gtk_font_selection_set_preview_text().

Constructors

this this(GtkFontSelection* gtkFontSelection): Sets our main struct and passes it to the parent class
this this(): Creates a new GtkFontSelection.

Functions

getFace PgFontFace getFace(): Gets the PangoFontFace representing the selected font group details (i.e. family, slant, weight, width, etc). Since 2.14
getFaceList Widget getFaceList(): This returns the GtkTreeView which lists all styles available for the selected font. For example, 'Regular', 'Bold', etc. Since 2.14
getFamily PgFontFamily getFamily(): Gets the PangoFontFamily representing the selected font family. Since 2.14
getFamilyList Widget getFamilyList(): This returns the GtkTreeView that lists font families, for example, 'Sans', 'Serif', etc. Since 2.14
getFont Font getFont(): Warning gtk_font_selection_get_font has been deprecated since version 2.0 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use gtk_font_selection_get_font_name() instead. Gets the currently-selected font.
getFontName string getFontName(): Gets the currently-selected font name. Note that this can be a different string than what you set with gtk_font_selection_set_font_name(), as the font selection widget may normalize font names and thus return a string with a different structure. For example, "Helvetica Italic Bold 12" could be normalized to "Helvetica Bold Italic 12". Use pango_font_description_equal() if you want to compare two font descriptions.
getFontSelectionStruct GtkFontSelection* getFontSelectionStruct(): Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.
getPreviewEntry Widget getPreviewEntry(): This returns the GtkEntry used to display the font as a preview. Since 2.14
getPreviewText string getPreviewText(): Gets the text displayed in the preview area.
getSize int getSize(): The selected font size. Since 2.14
getSizeEntry Widget getSizeEntry(): This returns the GtkEntry used to allow the user to edit the font number manually instead of selecting it from the list of font sizes. Since 2.14
getSizeList Widget getSizeList(): This returns the GtkTreeeView used to list font sizes. Since 2.14
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
setFontName int setFontName(string fontname): Sets the currently-selected font. Note that the fontsel needs to know the screen in which it will appear for this to work; this can be guaranteed by simply making sure that the fontsel is inserted in a toplevel window before you call this function.
setPreviewText void setPreviewText(string text): Sets the text displayed in the preview area. The text is used to show how the selected font looks.
setStruct void setStruct(GObject* obj): Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.
