Checkbox.font read/write property


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

To set the Checkbox.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 Checkbox.fontstyle and the Checkbox.fontsize properties).

Example

local ui = require "ui" -- create a simple window local win = ui.Window("Checkbox.font sample", 320, 200) local checkbox = ui.Checkbox(win, "", 40, 70) checkbox.font = "Times New Roman" checkbox.fontsize = 12 checkbox.text = "Checkbox in '"..checkbox.font.."' "..checkbox.fontsize.."px" win:show() -- update the user interface until the user closes the Window repeat ui.update() until not win.visible
