Assigns the specified font to a text object with the specified ID number.
Text_SetFontName returns a value of -2 if the specified object ID number is invalid.
Any font in the Fonts folder can be used; the folder is accessible from the Control Panel in Windows XP operating system. In Windows 7, an overview of the installed fonts can be found in the C:\Windows\Fonts folder.
Usage
Text_SetFontName(ObjectID, "FontName")
Where:
- ObjectID - a numerical expression specifying the object ID number.
- FontName - a string expression specifying the font name.
Notes
- An object-specific ID number is returned by Text_New when the text object is created.
Example
Assign font Verdana to the text object with the ID number of 3:
Value1=Text_SetFontName(3, "Verdana");
