GtkFontSelection implements AtkImplementorIface, GtkBuildable and GtkOrientable.
Includes
#include <gtk/gtk.h>
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().
In GTK+ 3.2, GtkFontSelection has been deprecated in favor of GtkFontChooser.
Functions
gtk_font_selection_new ()
GtkWidget *
gtk_font_selection_new (void); gtk_font_selection_new has been deprecated since version 3.2 and should not be used in newly-written code.
Use GtkFontChooserWidget instead
Creates a new GtkFontSelection.
Returns
a new GtkFontSelection
gtk_font_selection_get_font_name ()
gchar *
gtk_font_selection_get_font_name (GtkFontSelection *fontsel); gtk_font_selection_get_font_name has been deprecated since version 3.2 and should not be used in newly-written code.
Use GtkFontChooser
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.
Parameters
fontsel |
Returns
A string with the name of the current font, or NULL if no font is selected. You must free this string with g_free().
gtk_font_selection_set_font_name ()
gboolean gtk_font_selection_set_font_name (GtkFontSelection *fontsel,const gchar *fontname);
gtk_font_selection_set_font_name has been deprecated since version 3.2 and should not be used in newly-written code.
Use GtkFontChooser
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.
Parameters
fontsel | ||
fontname | a font name like “Helvetica 12” or “Times Bold 18” |
Returns
TRUE if the font could be set successfully; FALSE if no such font exists or if the fontsel doesn’t belong to a particular screen yet.

const gchar *
