Syntax 
 
[Visual Basic] 
Public Sub CellsManager.SetLogFont(UniqueID as Short, lf as Ctl3DWrapper.LOGFONT) as Boolean 
 
[C#] 
public bool CellsManager.SetLogFont(short UniqueID, Ctl3DWrapper.LOGFONT lf); 
 
[C++] 
public: bool CellsManager.SetLogFont(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.

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) 
With this code the font used to render the text of cell with UniqueID 1000 will be changed into Courier new, Italic, Bold and 16 points. 
 
Visual C# example 
 
// obtain the current font settings 
Ctl3DWrapper.LOGFONT lf = new Ctl3DWrapper.LOGFONT ();

// 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);
