font problems

Torte · Post by **Torte** » Mon Jan 02, 2006 4:10 pm

hi there,
i got a problem about font types, .NET, C#
i am loading several fonts from a saved aquisition like:

this.chart.GetSeries.Chart.Axes.Bottom.Title.Font;

or

Code: Select all

this.chart.GetTChart.Header.Font;

unfortunaly it seems this font differs from the System.Drawings.Font class since something like this:

Code: Select all

this.label1.Font = this.chart.GetTChart.Header.Font;

cannot be done..
even with

Code: Select all

this.label1.Font = (System.Drawings.Font) this.chart.GetTChart.Header.Font;

typcasting its not possible.
i could get the single properties like

Code: Select all

this.lyaxisfonttest.Strikeout=this.chart.GetSeries.Chart.Axes.Left.Title.Font.Strikeout;

but of course font properties of system labels are writeprotected, so you have to use the fontdialog or create a new font, either
way u got to give a full font-property-container...but is this really true?
seems absurd, since i suppose this to be an easy- or often needed- problem, any ideas?
thanks and regards,
Robert

Hi Robert,

you can easily assign it usign :
labelFont.Font = tChart1.Header.Font.DrawingFont;

hi pep,

thx for help, thats working

but what about :

Code: Select all

private Steema.TeeChart.Chart _myChart;
this._myChart.Axes.Bottom.Title.Font = this._myChart.Axes.Left.Title.Font;               
            // or ~.DrawingFont;

what to do about the write-protection of the font property ?
regards,
rob

Hi rob,

I'm afraid to copy the desired font properties separatelly, for example:

Code: Select all

      tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Title.Font.Size = tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Title.Font.Size;
