I'm having a bit of trouble reconciling the subject line "Window
callback" with the question about font selection? Were you going to ask
something else and...?
Anyway; font selection - what context are we talking about here?
Actually during a draw() method, or just setting fonts generally for
widgets?
What I'd do is probably something like this.
(NOTE: If you really just want Arial, then on a MS system it will have
been pre-loaded in the FL_HELVETICA stock font anyway, so just use
that...)
- Assuming I know the name of the font I want to load, and it is
available on the system (both of these things can be determined at
runtime, but that's a bit more code...)
- Re-use one of the stock fltk font names that I'm not going to use, and
fill it with my selected font:
Fl::set_font(FL_SYMBOL, " Arial Unicode MS");
- Now, for any widget, I can set it's font and size as:
widget->labelfont(FL_SYMBOL);
widget->labelsize(20);
- Or, from within a draw() method I might do:
fl_font(FL_SYMBOL, 20);
fl_color(FL_BLACK);
fl_draw(msg, .... Etc...
