Entry.font read/write property


Get the Entry font, a string value that represent the font name.

To set the Entry.font property, you can assign a string that represent either a font name of an installed system font, or a font file (*.ttf, *.fon...).
A File can also be provided, representing a font file.

Note that only the font family is changed. The font style and font size are not affected (see the Entry.fontstyle and the Entry.fontsize properties).

Example

local ui = require "ui" -- create a simple window local win = ui.Window("Entry.font sample", 320, 200) local entry = ui.Entry(win, "", 30,90) entry.fontsize = 12 entry.width = 260 entry.text = "Hello World in '"..entry.font.."' "..entry.fontsize.."px" win:show() -- update the user interface until the user closes the Window repeat ui.update() until not win.visible
