Detailed Description

A Pango::FontFamily is used to represent a family of related font faces.

The faces in a family share a common design, but differ in slant, weight, width and other aspects.

Member Function Documentation

◆ get_face() [1/2]

Glib::RefPtr< FontFace > Pango::FontFamily::get_face ( const Glib::ustring &  name = {})

Gets the Pango::FontFace of family with the given name.

Since pangomm 1.46:
Parameters
nameThe name of a face. If the name is nullptr, the family's default face (fontconfig calls it "Regular") will be returned.
Returns
The Pango::FontFace, or nullptr if no face with the given name exists.

◆ get_face() [2/2]

Glib::RefPtr< const FontFace > Pango::FontFamily::get_face ( const Glib::ustring &  name = {}) const

Gets the Pango::FontFace of family with the given name.

Since pangomm 1.46:
Parameters
nameThe name of a face. If the name is nullptr, the family's default face (fontconfig calls it "Regular") will be returned.
Returns
The Pango::FontFace, or nullptr if no face with the given name exists.

◆ get_name()

Glib::ustring Pango::FontFamily::get_name ( ) const

Gets the name of the family.

The name is unique among all fonts for the font backend and can be used in a Pango::FontDescription to specify that a face from this family is desired.

Returns
The name of the family. This string is owned by the family object and must not be modified or freed.

◆ get_type()

static GType Pango::FontFamily::get_type ( )
static

Get the GType for this class, for use with the underlying GObject type system.

◆ gobj() [1/2]

PangoFontFamily * Pango::FontFamily::gobj ( )
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

◆ gobj() [2/2]

const PangoFontFamily * Pango::FontFamily::gobj ( ) const
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

◆ gobj_copy()

PangoFontFamily * Pango::FontFamily::gobj_copy ( )

Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for unrefing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs.

◆ is_monospace()

bool Pango::FontFamily::is_monospace ( ) const

A monospace font is a font designed for text display where the the characters form a regular grid.

For Western languages this would mean that the advance width of all characters are the same, but this categorization also includes Asian fonts which include double-width characters: characters that occupy two grid cells. Glib::unichar_iswide() returns a result that indicates whether a character is typically double-width in a monospace font.

The best way to find out the grid-cell size is to call Pango::FontMetrics::get_approximate_digit_width(), since the results of Pango::FontMetrics::get_approximate_char_width() may be affected by double-width characters.

Since pangomm 1.4:
Returns
true if the family is monospace.

◆ is_variable()

bool Pango::FontFamily::is_variable ( ) const

A variable font is a font which has axes that can be modified to produce different faces.

Such axes are also known as variations; see Pango::FontDescription::set_variations() for more information.

Since pangomm 1.44:
Returns
true if the family is variable.

◆ list_faces()

std::vector< Glib::RefPtr< FontFace > > Pango::FontFamily::list_faces ( ) const

Lists the different font faces that make up family.

The faces in a family share a common design, but differ in slant, weight, width and other aspects.

Returns
an array of pointers to Pango::FontFace objects.

◆ operator=()

FontFamily & Pango::FontFamily::operator= ( FontFamily &&  src)
noexcept

◆ property_is_monospace()

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< bool > Pango::FontFamily::property_is_monospace ( ) const

Is this a monospace font.

Since pangomm 1.52:

Default value: false

Returns
A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

◆ property_is_variable()

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< bool > Pango::FontFamily::property_is_variable ( ) const

Is this a variable font.

Since pangomm 1.52:

Default value: false

Returns
A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

◆ property_item_type()

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< GType > Pango::FontFamily::property_item_type ( ) const

The type of items contained in this list.

Since pangomm 2.52:
Returns
A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

◆ property_n_items()

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< unsigned int > Pango::FontFamily::property_n_items ( ) const

The number of items contained in this list.

Since pangomm 2.52:

Default value: 0

Returns
A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

◆ property_name()

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< Glib::ustring > Pango::FontFamily::property_name ( ) const

The name of the family.

Since pangomm 1.52:

Default value: ""

Returns
A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

◆ wrap()

Glib::RefPtr< Pango::FontFamily > wrap ( PangoFontFamily *  object,
bool  take_copy = false 
)
related

A Glib::wrap() method for this object.

Parameters
objectThe C instance.
take_copyFalse if the result should take ownership of the C instance. True if it should take a new copy or ref.
Returns
A C++ instance that wraps this C instance.
