[Silvio.Falconi]

I wish Know the size of the font selected and save on aGet[15]
it give me a bad number and then not insert it on get



the test

Code: Select all

#include "fivewin.ch"
#include "constant.ch"


Function Test()
Local oDlg,oFont,oBold
Local ObtnSel[10]
Local cFont:=""
Local nSizeFont:=0

       Local nBottom   := 22
       Local nRight    := 102
       Local nWidth :=  Max( nRight * DLG_CHARPIX_W, 180 )
       Local nHeight := nBottom * DLG_CHARPIX_H
       local aGet[20]
       local oSay[10]

    DEFINE FONT oFont NAME "TAHOMA" SIZE 0,-14
      DEFINE FONT oBold NAME "TAHOMA" SIZE 0,-14 BOLD


DEFINE DIALOG oDlg        ;
   TITLE "test sel  font"     ;
   SIZE nWidth, nHeight   PIXEL  FONT oFont    ;
   STYLE nOr( DS_MODALFRAME, WS_POPUP, WS_CAPTION,  4 ) ;
   COLOR CLR_BLACK,  nRgb( 245,244,234)


   @ 116, 5   SAY oSay[6] Prompt "Carattere"  SIZE 80,14 PIXEL OF oDlg  TRANSPARENT  FONT oBold

   @ 126, 5   GET aGet[14] VAR cFont SIZE 200,12  PIXEL OF oDlg

   @ 126, 208 GET aGet[15] VAR nSizeFont SIZE 18,12  PIXEL OF oDlg

   @ 126, 228 BTNBMP oBtnSel[4]  RESOURCE "font.bmp"  FLAT SIZE 14, 12 OF oDlg PIXEL ;
                  COLOR  nRgb(238,236,219),nRgb(238,236,219) BORDER;
                  ACTION (aFont:=ChooseFont(),;
                     cFont :=aFont[LF_FACENAME],;
                     nSizeFont:= aFont[LF_HEIGHT ],;
                     msginfo( nSizeFont),;
                  aGet[14]:refresh(),aGet[15]:refresh())


ACTIVATE DIALOG oDLG CENTER
RETURN NIL

If you look into the aFont : there is no correct size from to font ? Strange...

For the save : it seems that the lenght of aGet[15] is to small to see it.

I solved it in another way

Hello Silvio,
would you be so kind to post the solution here.

I made a combobox for the fonts and another for the size from 6 to 99

[nageswaragunupudi]

ChooseFont() function of FWH is a straight forward implementation of Windows function ChooseFont().

The font size displayed in the ChooseFont() dialog box is in "Points". This size in points is converted to font height with this formula.

Code: Select all

lfHeight = -MulDiv(PointSize, GetDeviceCaps(hDC, LOGPIXELSY), 72)
 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/window ... i-logfonta

To get the size in points, we need to use reverse formula.

Code: Select all

function FontHeightInPoints( nHeight )

   local nPoints, hDC

   nPoints := Round( Abs( nHeight ) * 72 / GetDeviceCaps( hDC := GetDC( 0 ), 90 ), 0 )
   ReleaseDC( 0, hDC )

return nPoints

Thanks Rao
But I not understood How call that function

ACTION (aFont:=ChooseFont(),;
cFont :=aFont[LF_FACENAME],;
nSizeFont:=FontHeightInPoints( aFont[LF_HEIGHT ]),;
aGet[14]:refresh(),aGet[15]:refresh())

run ok


I need also to Know these parameters

Font name
Font size
Color
Bold
Italic
Underlined
Strikethrough


why I not see the color of the font ????

Hello Silvio, please look into EasyReport. Here you see how to do. You have to change the pen before printing.

Perhaps you not understood what I mean

this Image is from web



here , I not see bold... and color

when you make choosefont you must have

Font name
Font size
Color
Bold
Italic
Underlined
Strikethrough

I remember EasyReport save 20 type of font with 20 type of colors and it no good ( error )
on my app you can select any font you want and then it build a font when it print the text
