How to change the size of the text of UIbutton in monotouch?

Question

I tried the code

UIbutton *bt = new UIbutton;
bt.Font = UIFont.SystemFontSize(35);

But I keep getting a compilation error "Font size is inaccessible due to protection level." Any workaround?

Answer 1

The error message is far from ideal, but SystemFontSize is property that returns a float, not a method that returns a UIFont.

For that you want:

UIButton button = UIButton.FromType (UIButtonType.RoundedRect);
bt.Font = UIFont.SystemFontOfSize (35)
