FontUtils QML Type

FontUtils is a context property, which provides utility functions for font manipulations. More...

• List of all members, including inherited members

Methods

• real modularScale(string size)
• real sizeToPixels(string size)

Detailed Description

FontUtils cannot be instantiated and it is already available as a context property, i.e. 'FontUtils' is an instance that can be used from anywhere in the code.

Example of a Label implementation which uses the default base scale for the font size:

import QtQuick 2.4
import Lomiri.Components 1.2

Text {
    property string fontSize: "medium"
    font.pixelSize: FontUtils.sizeToPixels(fontSize)
}

Another example of a custom text input component exposing a fontSize property and a base font unit size to scale its font:

import QtQuick 2.4
import Lomiri.Components 1.2

TextInput {
    property string fontSize: "small"
    property int baseFontUnits: units.dp(20)
    font.pixelSize: FontUtils.modularScale(fontSize) * units.dp(baseFontUnits)
}
