Font management properties

Condensed (Property)

In french: Condensé

Warning
From version 27, this property is kept for backward compatibility. It is recommended to use the new CharacterSpacing property to manage character spacing.

The Condensed property is used to:

Determine whether a Font variable is condensed.
Condense a Font variable.

Remark: Font stretching can be:

Normal: character width is normal.
Condensed: character width is reduced (property Condensed).
Extended: character width is increased (property Extended).
Large: character width is increased to maximum (property Large).

Example

// Définir les caractéristiques d'une variable de type Police
Police1 is Font
Police1.Nom = "Arial"
Police1.Taille = 14
Police1.Condensé = True
// Appliquer la police au champ "MonChamp"
MyControl.Police = Police1

Syntax

<Result> = <Font>.Condensed

<Result>: Boolean

False otherwise.

Condensing a Font variable Hide the details

Remarks

Font variable

A font can be created from a Font variable.

To define the font characteristics, use:

the FontCreate function,
the Charset, Orientation, StrikeOut, Color, Extended, Bold, Italic, Large, Name, Underline and Size properties.

This font can be used:

To write text in drawings (dFont).
To write in charts (grLabelFont, grLegendFont, grTitleFont and grAxisTitleFont).
To print (iFont).
In the controls of a window (Font property).
In the controls of a report (Font property).

Limitations

Properties used to define character stretching (Condensed, Extended and Large properties) are managed only if the specified Font type variable is used for printing (print font or report field font).

In other cases (fonts used for drawings, charts or window controls), these characteristics are ignored.
