I'm making a Cocoa application and I can't figure out how to do something.
I want to make an NSTextField with a custom look like the one in Wallet :
Wallet screenshot.
I figured out how to change the NSTextField size but I don't know how to change the font and it size. I subclassed NSTextFieldCell like this but it doesn't work, the font is not changed if I don't choose a system font and the size only change line height but not characters height.
Header file :
#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
@interface VLTextFieldCell : NSTextFieldCell {
}
@end
Class file :
#import "VLTextFieldCell.h"
@implementation VLTextFieldCell
- (NSFont *)font
{
return [NSFont fontWithName:@"Lucida Grande" size:16.0];
}
@end
To change the font of an NSTextField, change its font in Interface Builder using the Font Panel, or via -setFont: at runtime.
It is not necessary to subclass NSTextField or NSTextFieldCell simply to use a different font.
[label setFont:[NSFont fontWithName:@"Arial-BoldItalicMT" size:20]];
setFont:
is declared in NSControl
, super class of NSTextField
.
