10 @class wxSymbolPickerDialog
11
12 wxSymbolPickerDialog presents the user with a choice of fonts and a grid
13 of available characters. This modal dialog provides the application with
14 a selected symbol and optional font selection.
15
16 Although this dialog is contained in the rich text library, the dialog
17 is generic and can be used in other contexts.
18
19 To use the dialog, pass a default symbol specified as a string, an initial font
20 name, and a current font name. The difference between the initial font and
21 current font is that the initial font determines what the font control will be
22 set to when the dialog shows - an empty string will show the selection
23 @e normal text.
24 The current font, on the other hand, is used by the dialog to determine what
25 font to display the characters in, even when no initial font is selected.
26 This allows the user (and application) to distinguish between inserting a
27 symbol in the current font, and inserting it with a specified font.
28
29 When the dialog is dismissed, the application can get the selected symbol
30 with wxSymbolPickerDialog::GetSymbol and test whether a font was specified
31 with wxSymbolPickerDialog::UseNormalFont,fetching the specified font with
32 wxSymbolPickerDialog::GetFontName.
33
34 Here's a realistic example, inserting the supplied symbol into a
35 rich text control in either the current font or specified font.
36
37 @code
38 wxRichTextCtrl* ctrl = (wxRichTextCtrl*) FindWindow(ID_RICHTEXT_CTRL);
39
40 wxTextAttr attr;
41 attr.SetFlags(wxTEXT_ATTR_FONT);
42 ctrl-GetStyle(ctrl->GetInsertionPoint(), attr);
43
44 wxString currentFontName;
45 if (attr.HasFont() && attr.GetFont().IsOk())
46 currentFontName = attr.GetFont().GetFaceName();
47
48 // Don't set the initial font in the dialog (so the user is choosing
49 // 'normal text', i.e. the current font) but do tell the dialog
50 // what 'normal text' is.
51
52 wxSymbolPickerDialog dlg("*", wxEmptyString, currentFontName, this);
53
54 if (dlg.ShowModal() == wxID_OK)
55 {
56 if (dlg.HasSelection())
57 {
58 long insertionPoint = ctrl-GetInsertionPoint();
59
60 ctrl->WriteText(dlg.GetSymbol());
61
62 if (!dlg.UseNormalFont())
63 {
64 wxFont font(attr.GetFont());
65 font.SetFaceName(dlg.GetFontName());
66 attr.SetFont(font);
67 ctrl-SetStyle(insertionPoint, insertionPoint+1, attr);
68 }
69 }
70 }
