@ -2,7 +2,29 @@ The Font property holds then handle of the loaded font associated with a control
Control(ControlID).Font = SetFont(FontName$, FontSize%, Attributes$)
## Controls that use the Font property:
* FontName$ must reference a font file. Only TTF fonts are accepted.
* If you don't specify a path, the current path is used.
* In Windows, if a path isn't specified the default font location **C:\Windows\Font** is searched.
* FontSize% is in pixels, not points.
* Attributes$ follow QB64's _LOADFONT parameters, but notice that BOLD and ITALIC parameters mostly have no effect, as there is usually a separate font file rendered with such attributes for different fonts.
* MONOSPACE will work to load a font with all characters having the same _FONTWIDTH.
You can also use QB64's builtin fonts (_FONT 16 or _FONT 8). To do so, specify only the FontSize% parameter:
Control(ControlID).Font = SetFont("", 8, "")
Control(ControlID).Font = SetFont("", 16, "")
To specify a font at design time, use the following syntax in the editor:
fontfile*attributes*size
The default font for controls is:
segoeui.ttf**12
If you don't set a control's font property, it will inherit its container's font (either the main form or a frame, if any).
## Controls that can use the Font property:
* [[Button]]
* [[Label]]
* [[Textbox]]
