# # Font specifications. # # This file, [source]d at initialization time, sets up the following # symbolic fonts based on the current platform: # # TkDefaultFont -- default for GUI items not otherwise specified # TkTextFont -- font for user text (entry, listbox, others) # TkFixedFont -- standard fixed width font # TkHeadingFont -- headings (column headings, etc) # TkCaptionFont -- dialog captions (primary text in alert dialogs, etc.) # TkTooltipFont -- font to use for tooltip windows # TkIconFont -- font to use for icon captions # TkMenuFont -- used to use for menu items # # In Tk 8.5, some of these fonts may be provided by the TIP#145 implementation # (On Windows and Mac OS X as of Oct 2007). # # +++ Platform notes: # # Windows: # The default system font changed from "MS Sans Serif" to "Tahoma" # in Windows XP/Windows 2000. # # MS documentation says to use "Tahoma 8" in Windows 2000/XP, # although many MS programs still use "MS Sans Serif 8" # # Should use SystemParametersInfo() instead. # # Mac OSX / Aqua: # Quoth the Apple HIG: # The _system font_ (Lucida Grande Regular 13 pt) is used for text # in menus, dialogs, and full-size controls. # [...] Use the _view font_ (Lucida Grande Regular 12pt) as the default # font of text in lists and tables. # [...] Use the _emphasized system font_ (Lucida Grande Bold 13 pt) # sparingly. It is used for the message text in alerts. # [...] The _small system font_ (Lucida Grande Regular 11 pt) [...] # is also the default font for column headings in lists, for help tags, # and for small controls. # # Note that the font for column headings (TkHeadingFont) is # _smaller_ than the default font. # # There does not appear to be any recommendations for fixed-width fonts. # # X11: # "Classic" look used Helvetica bold for everything except # for entry widgets, which use Helvetica medium. # Most other toolkits use medium weight for all UI elements, # which is what we do now. # # Font size specified in pixels on X11, not points. # This is Theoretically Wrong, but in practice works better; using # points leads to huge inconsistencies across different servers. # namespace eval ttk { variable tip145 [catch {font create TkDefaultFont}] catch {font create TkTextFont} catch {font create TkHeadingFont} catch {font create TkCaptionFont} catch {font create TkTooltipFont} catch {font create TkFixedFont} catch {font create TkIconFont} catch {font create TkMenuFont} catch {font create TkSmallCaptionFont} if {!$tip145} { variable F ;# miscellaneous platform-specific font parameters switch -- [tk windowingsystem] { win32 { # In safe interps there is no osVersion element. if {[info exists tcl_platform(osVersion)]} { if {$tcl_platform(osVersion) >= 5.0} { set F(family) "Tahoma" } else { set F(family) "MS Sans Serif" } } else { if {[lsearch -exact [font families] Tahoma] >= 0} { set F(family) "Tahoma" } else { set F(family) "MS Sans Serif" } } set F(size) 8 font configure TkDefaultFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkTextFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkHeadingFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkCaptionFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) \ -weight bold font configure TkTooltipFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkFixedFont -family Courier -size 10 font configure TkIconFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkMenuFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkSmallCaptionFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) } aqua { set F(family) "Lucida Grande" set F(fixed) "Monaco" set F(menusize) 14 set F(size) 13 set F(viewsize) 12 set F(smallsize) 11 set F(labelsize) 10 set F(fixedsize) 11 font configure TkDefaultFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkTextFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkHeadingFont -family $F(family) -size $F(smallsize) font configure TkCaptionFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) \ -weight bold font configure TkTooltipFont -family $F(family) -size $F(smallsize) font configure TkFixedFont -family $F(fixed) -size $F(fixedsize) font configure TkIconFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkMenuFont -family $F(family) -size $F(menusize) font configure TkSmallCaptionFont -family $F(family) -size $F(labelsize) } default - x11 { if {![catch {tk::pkgconfig get fontsystem} F(fs)] && $F(fs) eq "xft"} { set F(family) "sans-serif" set F(fixed) "monospace" } else { set F(family) "Helvetica" set F(fixed) "courier" } set F(size) -12 set F(ttsize) -10 set F(capsize) -14 set F(fixedsize) -12 font configure TkDefaultFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkTextFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkHeadingFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) \ -weight bold font configure TkCaptionFont -family $F(family) -size $F(capsize) \ -weight bold font configure TkTooltipFont -family $F(family) -size $F(ttsize) font configure TkFixedFont -family $F(fixed) -size $F(fixedsize) font configure TkIconFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkMenuFont -family $F(family) -size $F(size) font configure TkSmallCaptionFont -family $F(family) -size $F(ttsize) } } unset -nocomplain F } } #*EOF*
