Detailed Description

Functions that operate on single line, single style text objects.

For multiline and multiple style text, see Textblock Object Functions.

See some examples on this group of functions.

Warning: We don't guarantee any proper results if you create a Text object without setting the evas engine.

Macro Definition Documentation

◆ EVAS_TEXT_STYLE_BASIC_SET

#define EVAS_TEXT_STYLE_BASIC_SET	(	x,
		s
	)	do { x = ((x) & ~EVAS_TEXT_STYLE_MASK_BASIC) \| (s); } while (0)

Text style type creation macro.

Use style types on the 's' arguments, being 'x' your style variable.

◆ EVAS_TEXT_STYLE_SHADOW_DIRECTION_SET

#define EVAS_TEXT_STYLE_SHADOW_DIRECTION_SET	(	x,
		s
	)	do { x = ((x) & ~EVAS_TEXT_STYLE_MASK_SHADOW_DIRECTION) \| (s); } while (0)

		Evas_Font_Size	size
	)

Set the font family or filename, and size on a given text object.

This function allows the font name and size of a text object to be set. The font string has to follow fontconfig's convention on naming fonts, as it's the underlying library used to query system fonts by Evas (see the fc-list command's output, on your system, to get an idea). Alternatively, one can use a full path to a font file.

Parameters

[in]	font	The font family name or filename.
[in]	size	The font size, in points.

EVAS_API void evas_object_text_font_get	(	const Eo *	obj,
		const char **	font,
		Evas_Font_Size *	size
	)

Retrieve the font family and size in use on a given text object.

This function allows the font name and size of a text object to be queried. Be aware that the font name string is still owned by Evas and should not have free() called on it by the caller of the function.

[out]	size	The font size, in points.
