Typeface^(native)

The Typeface class specifies the typeface and intrinsic style of a font.

Properties

• bold : Boolean
  True if style is the #bold
• italic : Boolean
  True if style isNaN the #italic
• style : Symbol
  Typeface's intrinsic style attributes.
• uniqueId : Integer
  Integer value for this typeface, unique for the underlying font data. This is never 0.

Methods

• fromName(familyName, style) : Typeface
  Creates new instance of Typeface class to the font that most closely matches the requested familyName and style.

Remarks

This is used in the paint, along with optionally algorithmic settings like textSize, textSkewX, textScaleX, kFakeBoldText_Mask, to specify how text appears when drawn (and measured).Typeface objects are immutable, and so they can be shared between threads.
