Hullo,

I'm trying to change the font (face and style) in a custom object derived from Entry.

I use the following code:
Pango::FontDescription fd(get_layout()->get_context()->get_font_description());
        if (word.HasSerif())
                fd.set_family("times");
        else
                fd.set_family("arial");
        if (word.IsItalics())
                fd.set_style(Pango::STYLE_ITALIC);
        else
                fd.set_style(Pango::STYLE_NORMAL);
        get_layout()->get_context()->set_font_description(fd);


This seems to need the widget to be associated to a fully functionnal GdkWidow, so rather than putting this code in the constructor, I connected it to a signal.

I tried map and map-event but it did not work. I thought that these signals where emitted when (resp.) asking to associate and associating the widget to a GdkWindow…

I also tried expose-event, which is supposed to be emitted when the widget is rendered, and it changes the font only when the edit gets the focus! O_O

Do you have any insight on the matter, please?
