Dear all,
I am struggling with changing the .fontname property for the content of
a table uicontrol.
The default font is "Tahoma", that is not monospaced. I would like to
set a monospaced font,
like "Monospaced", "Consolas", etc that are available on my system,
as reported by xlfont("AVAILABLE_FONTS").
xlfont("Consolas") // works well:
--> xlfont
ans =
column 1 to 7
*"Monospaced"* "ScilabSymbols" "Serif" "Serif Italic" "Serif Bold"
"Serif Bold Italic" "SansSerif"
column 8 to 11
"SansSerif Italic" "SansSerif Bold" "SansSerif Bold Italic"
"SansSerif Bold Italic"
--> xlfont("Consolas");
--> xlfont
ans =
column 1 to 7
*"Monospaced" *"ScilabSymbols" "Serif" "Serif Italic" "Serif Bold"
"Serif Bold Italic" "SansSerif"
column 8 to 12
"SansSerif Italic" "SansSerif Bold" "SansSerif Bold Italic"
"SansSerif Bold Italic" *"Consolas"*
But the, when i set it to the uicontrol, the rendering does not change:
xlfont()
table = [
"" "A" "B" "C" "D"
"1" "try" "catch" "abs" "evstr"
"2" "do" "members" "while" "sin"
"3" "cos" "isascii" "linspace" "tan"
];
f = gcf(); clf
as = f.axes_size; // [width height]
ut = uicontrol("style","table", "string",table,"FontName","Consolas", ..
"position", [5 as(2)-100 300 100]); // =>@top left corner of
figure
// No change in the display, even after resizing a bit the figure
(sometimes required to update the display). Yet, the property has well
been assigned: --> ut.fontnameans ="Consolas"
Does anyone experiment the same, or succeed by doing it in another way?
Using "<html><p style=""font-family:Consolas">...</p>" in each cell works,
but is so unhandy while a property is theoretically available to do the job...
Thanks
Samuel
