FontView 5

Post by rbytes »

I missed publishing version 4, but no matter. This version has buttons loaded from images (introduced in SPL update 24) and buttons modified with the new parameters font name, fontcolor and font size (introduced in SPL update 25). I used Ranchers font, available free at 1001fonts.com. If you don't want to install it, you will need to insert a different font name for buttons.

The four button images will need to be downloaded and placed in a folder called Fontview at the same path as the program.

Code: Select all

FontView 5 by rbytes
October 2017
View all of the fonts on your device
at any size you wish.

V5 shows buttons using fontname, fontsize and fontcolor parameters
V4 introduces the new V24 features
   - #.listbox object to show fonts
   - #.relax() function as a CPU slowdown in main loop
   - .image parameter for buttons, to add a background image
   
V3 resizes the interface to work
on any Windows 10 device

V2 improves the layout and improves
the button functions

Yes, Ranchers looks like that. :lol:

I wanted to be sure everyone could see how well your new button features work in v25.
