Set the font and font size with ButtonArray? #18

Closed deegquest closed 3 years ago

deegquest commented 3 years ago

Is it possible to set the font and font size with ButtonArray?

AustL commented 3 years ago

Yes. To do so, just pass in a tuple into the constructor with keyword argument 'fonts'. E.g.

ButtonArray(win, x, y, width, height, shape, fonts=('font1', 'font2', 'font3'))) for a button array with 3 buttons. The same applies for fontSizes. Currently, if all the buttons have the same properties, you need to repeat. This may be fixed later.

Thanks, I will try it when I get the chance.

I got it to work, not with the font str name, but with the font object combined with the size (not a separate fontSizes=()). The below works: font1 = pygame.font.Font(pygame.font.match_font('arial'), 50) font2 = pygame.font.Font(pygame.font.match_font('impact'), 60) red = (200, 0, 0) green = (0, 40, 0) buttonArray = ButtonArray(win, 50, 50, 500, 500, (2, 2), border=100, texts=('1', '2', '3', '4'), fonts=(font1, font2, font1, font2), textColours=(red, green, red, green) )

I'm not sure why this is happening, but I will look into it.

The fonts keyword argument takes Font objects not strings. The fontSize keyword argument only applies for the default font and is overridden by the fonts provided.
