tkinter.font — Invólucro de fontes Tkinter

Código-fonte: Lib/tkinter/font.py

The tkinter.font module provides the Font class for creating and using named fonts.

Os diferentes pesos e inclinações de fontes são:

tkinter.font.NORMAL
tkinter.font.BOLD
tkinter.font.ITALIC
tkinter.font.ROMAN
class tkinter.font.Font(root=None, font=None, name=None, exists=False, **options)

The Font class represents a font used by Tk widgets. It either creates a new named font or refers to an existing font. A named font is Tk’s way of identifying a font as a single object that can be referred to by name and reconfigured in place, rather than respecifying its attributes at each use.

With exists false (the default), a new named font is created. Its attributes are taken from the font description font if it is given, overridden by any keyword options. The new font is named name, or a generated unique name if name is omitted.

With exists true, an existing font is referred to instead of being created. If name is given, it is the name of the font, which is reconfigured by font and options if either is given. If name is omitted, the font description font is wrapped as is, without creating a named font, so that it is used without loss of precision by actual(), measure() and metrics(). In this case no keyword options are accepted, and the name attribute is the description itself rather than a string.

The font description font is a tuple of the family name, the size and zero or more styles, or any other form accepted by Tk, such as the name of a named font.

The keyword options are:

family - font family, for example, Courier, Times
size - tamanho da fonte
Se size for positivo, ele é interpretado como tamanho em pontos.
Caso size seja um número negativo, seu valor absoluto é tratado
como tamanho em pixels.
weight - ênfase da fonte (normal,negrito)
slant - ROMAN, ITALIC
underline - sublinhamento da fonte (0 - sem sublinhamento, 1 - sublinhado)
overstrike - fonte riscada (0 - sem risco, 1 - letras riscadas)

Alterado na versão 3.10: Two fonts now compare equal (==) only when both are Font instances with the same name belonging to the same Tcl interpreter.

Alterado na versão 3.16.0a0 (unreleased): A font description can now be wrapped without creating a new named font, and keyword options now override the attributes of the specified font.

actual(option=None, displayof=None)

Return the actual attributes of the font, which may differ from the requested ones because of platform limitations. With no option, return a dictionary of all the attributes; if option is given, return the value of that single attribute. The attributes are resolved on the display of the displayof widget, or the main application window if it is not specified.

cget(option)

Recupera um atributo da fonte.

Nota

cget() and configure() operate on a named font and raise TclError for a wrapped font description. Use actual() to query the attributes of the latter.

configure(**options)

Modify one or more attributes of the font. With no arguments, return a dictionary of the current attributes.

config() is an alias of configure().

copy()

Return a distinct copy of the current font: a new named font with the same attributes but a different name, which can be reconfigured independently of the original. If the current font wraps a font description, the copy is instead a named font with its resolved attributes.

measure(text, displayof=None)

Return amount of space the text would occupy on the specified display when formatted in the current font, as an integer number of pixels. If no display is specified then the main application window is assumed.

metrics(*options, **kw)

Return font-specific data. With no options, return a dictionary mapping each metric name to its integer value; if one option name is given, return that metric’s value as an integer. Options include:

ascent - distância entre a linha de base e o ponto mais alto que um

caractere da fonte pode ocupar

descent - distância entre a linha de base e o ponto mais baixo que um

caractere da fonte pode ocupar

linespace - separação vertical mínima necessária entre dois

caracteres da fonte que garante que não ocorra sobreposição entre as linhas.

fixed - 1 caso a fonte seja de largura fixa, 0 caso contrário

tkinter.font.families(root=None, displayof=None)

Return a tuple of the names of the available font families.

tkinter.font.names(root=None)

Return a tuple of the names of all the defined fonts.

tkinter.font.nametofont(name, root=None)

Return a Font representation of the existing named font name. root is the widget whose Tcl interpreter owns the font; if omitted, the default root window is used.

Alterado na versão 3.10: O parâmetro root foi adicionado.
