Description

Returns an array of strings specifying all supported fonts. These fonts depend on the formatting device set with the WPF.TextControl.FormattingPrinter or TextControl.FormattingPrinter property and on attributes set with the WPF.TextControl.FontSettings or TextControl.FontSettings property.

Syntax

public string[] GetFontFamilies();

Public Function GetFontFamilies() As String()

Return Value

The return value is the list of available fonts.

Examples

The following XAML example shows how to bind a combo box to the FontFamily property using GetFontFamilies to fill the combo box with available font names.

<ComboBox
    Name="cbFontFamily"
    IsEditable="True"
    IsReadOnly="True"
    Width="150"
    DropDownOpened="cbFontFamily_DropDownOpened"
    Text="{Binding ElementName=textControl1, Path=InputFormat.FontFamily}" />

private void cbFontFamily_DropDownOpened(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    cbFontFamily.ItemsSource = textControl1.InputFormat.GetFontFamilies();
}

Private Sub cbFontFamily_DropDownOpened(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
    cbFontFamily.ItemsSource = textControl1.InputFormat.GetFontFamilies()
End Sub

The following example changes the formatting applied to text entered at the end of a document by using InputFormat.GetFontFamilies.

textControl.Text = "Project summary";
textControl.InputPosition = new InputPosition(textControl.Text.Length);
InputFormat inputFormat = textControl.InputFormat;

string[] results = inputFormat.GetFontFamilies();
foreach (string text in results)
{
    Console.WriteLine(text);
}

textControl.Text = "Project summary"
textControl.InputPosition = New InputPosition(textControl.Text.Length)
Dim inputFormat As InputFormat = textControl.InputFormat

Dim results As String() = inputFormat.GetFontFamilies()
For Each text As String In results
    Console.WriteLine(text)
