ISch_FontManager2 interface

The ISch_FontManager2 interface represents the internal font manager in Schematic Editor that manages fonts for text based objects on schematic documents. The ISch_FontManager2 is the same as ISch_FontManager, but all the methods have the Safecall calling convention which is important for SDK purposes.

Bold

This Bold property determines the Bold style for the font.

bool GetState_Bold(int argnId);

Type: bool · Access: read-only · Index: argnId (int)

int GetState_DefaultHorizontalSysFontId();

Type: int · Access: read-only

DefaultVerticalSysFontId

int GetState_DefaultVerticalSysFontId();

Type: int · Access: read-only

FontCount

The FontCount property returns the number of fonts used in the computer system that the Altium Designer is currently residing on.

int GetState_FontCount();

Type: int · Access: read-only

FontName

This indexed FontName property returns the name of an indexed font as a string. Every computer could have a different table of fonts used.

string GetState_FontName(int argnId);

Type: string · Access: read-only · Index: argnId (int)

Italic

This Italic property determines the Italic style for the font.

bool GetState_Italic(int argnId);

Size

The Size property determines the font size.

int GetState_Size(int argnId);

Type: int · Access: read-only · Index: argnId (int)

StrikeOut

The StrikeOut property determines whether the font is striked out or not.

bool GetState_StrikeOut(int argnId);

Type: bool · Access: read-only · Index: argnId (int)
