UI.makeFont

(part of UI)

Returns: font

Parameters: family (string), size (number), [weight (string)]

Returns a font object of the form { family: family, size: size, weight: weight }. If weight is not specified, "normal" is assumed.

Note: family can contain more than one font, just like CSS. Also, should family names with spaces be needed, enclose in the opposite quote.

Note: size is in pixels when translated to CSS.

Note: weight can be any of the CSS values for font weights.

Usage

var aFont = UI.makeFont ( "Helvetica", 20, "bold" );
// aFont is { family: "Helvetica", size: 20, weight: "bold" );
