I am working on a font dialog for epad and what i do and this is in python
is:
tb_style = self.font_demo.textblock.style_get()
font =
tb_style.split('text_class=entry_text')[1].split('font=')[1].split("'em=")[0]
# font may or may not have style associated with it
if ':style=' in font:
font, style = font.split(':style=')
else:
style = None
# If font name or styyle has spaces in it
# textblock.style_get() inserts '\' before space
# then the python string split function adds another space
# To set the style with a font name that has spaces spaces need to
be removed
font = font.replace('\\ ',' ')
if style:
style = style.replace('\\ ',' ')
size =
tb_style.split('text_class=entry_text')[1].split('font_size=')[1].split('
')[0]
self.theme_data = [font, style, float(size)]
But i am setting a user style for the entry and to revert back to the
default font I just remove all styles. I do want my font dialog to display
the theme font but i am unsure what to do about the font style unless it is
specified. SO i just select nothing for style in the font dialog.
It is also worth mentioning in the above code I do not use the default font
because the user can change things using elementary_config or the theme
itself may specify a different font for entry_text.
