\membersection{wxFontData::wxFontData}

\func{}{wxFontData}{\void}

Constructor. Initializes {\it fontColour} to black, {\it showHelp} to black,
\rtfsp{\it allowSymbols} to TRUE, {\it enableEffects} to TRUE,
\rtfsp{\it minSize} to 0 and {\it maxSize} to 0.

\membersection{wxFontData::\destruct{wxFontData}}

\func{}{\destruct{wxFontData}}{\void}

Destructor.

\membersection{wxFontData::EnableEffects}

\func{void}{EnableEffects}{\param{bool}{ enable}}

Enables or disables `effects' under MS Windows only. This refers to the
controls for manipulating colour, strikeout and underline properties.

The default value is TRUE.

\membersection{wxFontData::GetAllowSymbols}

\func{bool}{GetAllowSymbols}{\void}

Under MS Windows, returns a flag determining whether symbol fonts can be selected. Has no
effect on other platforms.

The default value is TRUE.

\membersection{wxFontData::GetColour}

\func{wxColour\&}{GetColour}{\void}

Gets the colour associated with the font dialog.

The default value is black.

\membersection{wxFontData::GetChosenFont}

\func{wxFont}{GetChosenFont}{\void}

Gets the font chosen by the user. If the user pressed OK (wxFontDialog::Show returned TRUE), this returns
a new font which is now `owned' by the application, and should be deleted
if not required. If the user pressed Cancel (wxFontDialog::Show returned FALSE) or
the colour dialog has not been invoked yet, this will return NULL.

\membersection{wxFontData::GetEnableEffects}

\func{bool}{GetEnableEffects}{\void}

Determines whether `effects' are enabled under Windows. This refers to the
controls for manipulating colour, strikeout and underline properties.

The default value is TRUE.

\membersection{wxFontData::GetInitialFont}

\func{wxFont}{GetInitialFont}{\void}

Gets the font that will be initially used by the font dialog. This should have
previously been set by the application.

\membersection{wxFontData::GetShowHelp}

\func{bool}{GetShowHelp}{\void}

Returns TRUE if the Help button will be shown (Windows only).

The default value is FALSE.

\membersection{wxFontData::SetAllowSymbols}

\func{void}{SetAllowSymbols}{\param{bool}{ allowSymbols}}

Under MS Windows, determines whether symbol fonts can be selected. Has no
effect on other platforms.

The default value is TRUE.

\membersection{wxFontData::SetChosenFont}

\func{void}{SetChosenFont}{\param{const wxFont\& }{font}}

Sets the font that will be returned to the user (for internal use only).

\membersection{wxFontData::SetColour}

\func{void}{SetColour}{\param{const wxColour\&}{ colour}}

Sets the colour that will be used for the font foreground colour.

The default colour is black.

\membersection{wxFontData::SetInitialFont}

\func{void}{SetInitialFont}{\param{const wxFont\&}{font}}

Sets the font that will be initially used by the font dialog.

\membersection{wxFontData::SetRange}

\func{void}{SetRange}{\param{int}{ min}, \param{int}{ max}}

Sets the valid range for the font point size (Windows only).

The default is 0, 0 (unrestricted range).

\membersection{wxFontData::SetShowHelp}

\func{void}{SetShowHelp}{\param{bool}{ showHelp}}

Determines whether the Help button will be displayed in the font dialog (Windows only).

The default value is FALSE.

\membersection{wxFontData::operator $=$}

\func{void}{operator $=$}{\param{const wxFontData\&}{ data}}

Assingment operator for the font data.

\section{\class{wxFontDialog}}\label{wxfontdialog}

This class represents the font chooser dialog.

\latexignore{\rtfignore{\wxheading{Members}}}

\membersection{wxFontDialog::wxFontDialog}

\func{}{wxFontDialog}{\param{wxWindow* }{parent}, \param{wxFontData* }{data = NULL}}

Constructor. Pass a parent window, and optionally a pointer to a block of font
data, which will be copied to the font dialog's font data.

\membersection{wxFontDialog::\destruct{wxFontDialog}}

\func{}{\destruct{wxFontDialog}}{\void}

Destructor.

\membersection{wxFontDialog::GetFontData}

\func{wxFontData\&}{GetFontData}{\void}

Returns the \helpref{font data}{wxfontdata} associated with the font dialog.

\membersection{wxFontDialog::ShowModal}

\func{int}{ShowModal}{\void}

Shows the dialog, returning wxID\_OK if the user pressed Ok, and wxID\_CANCEL
otherwise.

If the user cancels the dialog (ShowModal returns wxID\_CANCEL), no font will be
created. If the user presses OK (ShowModal returns wxID\_OK), a new wxFont will
be created and stored in the font dialog's wxFontData structure.
