13This control allows the user to select a font. The generic implementation is
14a button which brings up a \helpref{wxFontDialog}{wxfontdialog} when clicked. Native implementation
15may differ but this is usually a (small) widget which give access to the font-chooser
16dialog.
17It is only available if \texttt{wxUSE\_FONTPICKERCTRL} is set to $1$ (the default).

124Returns the currently selected font.
125Note that this function is completely different from \helpref{wxWindow::GetFont}{wxwindowgetfont}.

132Sets the currently selected font.
133Note that this function is completely different from \helpref{wxWindow::SetFont}{wxwindowsetfont}.

144
145\func{void}{GetMaxPointSize}{\param{unsigned int}{ max}}
146
147Sets the maximum point size value allowed for the user-chosen font.
148The default value is 100. Note that big fonts can require a lot of memory and CPU time
149both for creation and for rendering; thus, specially because the user has the option to specify
aaa6f9ba 150the fontsize through a text control (see wxFNTP\_USE\_TEXTCTRL), it's a good idea to put a limit
ec376c8f
VZ
151to the maximum font size when huge fonts do not make much sense.
