<brief_description>
- Font class is set of font data sources used to draw text.
+ Base class for fonts and font variations.
</brief_description>
<description>
- Font contains a set of glyphs to represent Unicode characters, as well as the ability to draw it with variable width, ascent, descent and kerning.
- [b]Note:[/b] A character is a symbol that represents an item (letter, digit etc.) in an abstract way.
- [b]Note:[/b] A glyph is a bitmap or shape used to draw a one or more characters in a context-dependent manner. Glyph indices are bound to the specific font data source.
- [b]Note:[/b] If a non of the font data sources contain glyphs for a character used in a string, the character in question will be replaced with a box displaying its hexadecimal code.
- [codeblocks]
- [gdscript]
- var font = Font.new()
- font.add_data(load("res://BarlowCondensed-Bold.ttf"))
- $"Label".set("custom_fonts/font", font)
- $"Label".set("custom_fonts/font_size", 64)
- [/gdscript]
- [csharp]
- var font = new Font();
- font.AddData(ResourceLoader.Load&lt;FontData&gt;("res://BarlowCondensed-Bold.ttf"));
- GetNode("Label").Set("custom_fonts/font", font);
- GetNode("Label").Set("custom_font_sizes/font_size", 64);
- [/csharp]
- [/codeblocks]
- To control font substitution priority use [FontData] language and script support.
- Use language overrides to use same [Font] stack for multiple languages:
- [codeblocks]
- [gdscript]
- # Use Naskh font for Persian and Nastaʼlīq font for Urdu text.
- var font_data_fa = load("res://NotoNaskhArabicUI_Regular.ttf");
- font_data_fa.set_language_support_override("fa", true);
- font_data_fa.set_language_support_override("ur", false);
-
- var font_data_ur = load("res://NotoNastaliqUrdu_Regular.ttf");
- font_data_ur.set_language_support_override("fa", false);
- font_data_ur.set_language_support_override("ur", true);
- [/gdscript]
- [csharp]
- // Use Naskh font for Persian and Nastaʼlīq font for Urdu text.
- var fontDataFA = ResourceLoader.Load&lt;FontData&gt;("res://NotoNaskhArabicUI_Regular.ttf");
- fontDataFA.SetLanguageSupportOverride("fa", true);
- fontDataFA.SetLanguageSupportOverride("ur", false);
-
- var fontDataUR = ResourceLoader.Load&lt;FontData&gt;("res://NotoNastaliqUrdu_Regular.ttf");
- fontDataUR.SetLanguageSupportOverride("fa", false);
- fontDataUR.SetLanguageSupportOverride("ur", true);
- [/csharp]
- [/codeblocks]
- Use script overrides to specify supported scripts for bitmap font or for less common scripts not directly supported by TrueType format:
- [codeblocks]
- [gdscript]
- # Use specified font for Egyptian hieroglyphs.
- var font_data = load("res://unifont.ttf");
- font_data.set_script_support_override("Egyp", true);
- [/gdscript]
- [csharp]
- // Use specified font for Egyptian hieroglyphs.
- var fontData = ResourceLoader.Load&lt;FontData&gt;("res://unifont.ttf");
- fontData.SetScriptSupportOverride("Egyp", true);
- [/csharp]
- [/codeblocks]
+ Font is the abstract base class for font, so it shouldn't be used directly. Other types of fonts inherit from it.
