Syntax 

 

[Visual Basic] 

Public Sub CellsManager.GetLogFont(UniqueID as Short, lf as Ctl3DWrapper.LOGFONT) as Boolean 

 

[C#] 

public bool CellsManager.GetLogFont(short UniqueID, Ctl3DWrapper.LOGFONT lf); 

 

[C++] 

public: bool CellsManager.GetLogFont(short UniqueID, Ctl3DWrapper.LOGFONT lf); 

 

Parameter	Description
UniqueID	Numerical value representing the cell's unique identifier
lf	Address in memory of the the LOGFONT structure containing the font settings  The Managed C++ definition for the LOGFONT structure is as follows:  [StructLayout(LayoutKind::Sequential)]  __gc public class LOGFONT  {  public:     int     lfHeight;     int     lfWidth;     int     lfEscapement;     int     lfOrientation;     int     lfWeight;     BYTE    lfItalic;     BYTE    lfUnderline;     BYTE    lfStrikeOut;     BYTE    lfCharSet;     BYTE    lfOutPrecision;     BYTE    lfClipPrecision;     BYTE    lfQuality;     BYTE    lfPitchAndFamily;     [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType::ByValTStr, SizeConst=32)]     String  *lfFaceName;  };  Refer to the Microsoft documentation for details about the LOGFONT structure fields.

True	The operation was successful

 

 

Visual Basic example 

 

' obtain the current font settings 

Dim lf As New Ctl3DWrapper.LOGFONT 

ctl3dBtn1.CellsManager.GetLogFont (1000, lf) 

 

' change the needed fields only 

lf.lfFaceName = "Courier New"; 

lf.lfItalic = 1; 

lf.lfHeight = 16; 

lf.lfWeight = 700; 

 

' send the new font settings to the control 

ctl3dBtn1.CellsManager.SetLogFont (1000, lf)

lf.lfItalic = 1; 

lf.lfHeight = 16;

// send the new font settings to the control
