Fonts are used for drawing text to a device context, and setting the appearance of a window's text. +This class uses \helpref{reference counting and copy-on-write}{trefcount} +internally so that assignments between two instances of this class are very +cheap. You can therefore use actual objects instead of pointers without +efficiency problems. If an instance of this class is changed it will create +its own data internally so that other instances, which previously shared the +data using the reference counting, are not affected. + You can retrieve the current system font settings with \helpref{wxSystemSettings}{wxsystemsettings}. \helpref{wxSystemSettings}{wxsystemsettings}
