## Member Function Documentation

const Button* Gtk::FontSelectionDialog::get_apply_button | ( |  | ) | const

Button* Gtk::FontSelectionDialog::get_apply_button | ( |  | ) |

const Button* Gtk::FontSelectionDialog::get_cancel_button | ( |  | ) | const

Button* Gtk::FontSelectionDialog::get_cancel_button | ( |  | ) |

Glib::ustring Gtk::FontSelectionDialog::get_font_name | ( |  | ) | const

Gets the currently-selected font name.

Note that this can be a different string than what you set with 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.

Returns:
  A string with the name of the current font, or #`0` if no font is selected. You must free this string with Glib::free().

Glib::ustring Gtk::FontSelectionDialog::get_preview_text | ( |  | ) | const

The text returned is the preview text used to show how the selected font looks.

Returns:
  Pointer to the preview text string. This string points to internally allocated storage in the widget and must not be freed, modified or stored.

const GtkFontSelectionDialog* Gtk::FontSelectionDialog::gobj | ( |  | ) | const`[inline]`

Provides access to the underlying C GtkObject.

Reimplemented from Gtk::Dialog.

GtkFontSelectionDialog* Gtk::FontSelectionDialog::gobj | ( |  | ) | `[inline]`

bool Gtk::FontSelectionDialog::set_font_name | ( | const Glib::ustring & | fontname | ) |

Sets the currently selected font.

Parameters:

  | fontname | A pointer to a string.

Returns:
  `true` if the font selected in fsd is now the fontname specified. `false` otherwise.

void Gtk::FontSelectionDialog::set_preview_text | ( | const Glib::ustring & | fontname | ) |

The text is used to show how the selected font looks.

Parameters:

  | text | A pointer to a string.
