I want to change font size dynamically. Unfortunately, layout depends on font size. The font size is setting for root styleclass. So how can I determine what is font size for some nodes?
Every class that extends Labeled has a font property. You can bind this font property to another font property and change it as you like.
You can get the node from your group and then get its font property to do what you want.
Yes the layout is dependent on size of font. Maybe calling sizeToScene() of stage repeatedly may help.

I want to display text with directwrite in a specified rectangle and with a specified font size, the text outside the rect should be cutted off.
By searching I found something about CreateTextLayout but it looked like it isn't possible to define the font size with it.
Thanks for answers.
It's not something DirectWrite is responsible for, unless you're using IDWriteBitmapRenderTarget. If you're using DrawText/DrawTextLayout from Direct2D you simply need to use D2D1_DRAW_TEXT_OPTIONS_CLIP option. If you are using DirectWrite bitmap target, it's enough to set target size to layout size, or to blit layout size portion to your destination context.
There is IDWriteTextFormat::SetTrimming(). When applied (with SetTrimming(&DWRITE_TRIMMING{DWRITE_TRIMMING_GRANULARITY_CHARACTER,0,0}, nullptr);), overflowing characters [glyph clusters?] and lines are omitted.
I have a storyboard with (among other things) a label. Its height is proportional to the screen height. But the text size in the label is always the same. I'd like to also have a proportional font size.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thank you for your help.
Edit: Maybe I should specify that my label has both width and height proportional to the screen size (the bigger the screen is, the bigger the label is).
I did it programmatically but I'd like to know if it's possible to do it from the storyboard.
click the label and choose the size properties inspector on the right hand side and edit the font size. You can then choose a size of your choosing
I have a Label in a Scene. I need to get always the largest font size for the text in it, so that the text always takes the maximum size in the available size of the label.
How can I do that?
final double MAX_FONT_SIZE = 30.0; // define max font size you need
label.setFont(new Font(MAX_FONT_SIZE)); // set to Label
I am not sure if we have a way to set font size according to the size of the container. But you could scale the text vertically or horizontally to fit the container bounds. Check out the following ...
Scaling a textbox without truncating text within it
I use that code
Font bmpfont=Font.createBitmapFont(icon, new int[0], new int[12], "S");
First param is image, second is offset, third is length and fourth is charset. And I get Font object from that code. But I set that font to TextArea...
TextArea ta=new TextArea();
ta.getStlye().setFont(bmpfont);
ta.setText("S");
Text Area display only "S". Then I want to know how to create my own bitmap font and how to add that font to use. I want to make many bitmap fonts.
Generally we expect you to use the bitmap font creation tools within LWUIT and not invoke this method which is intended for internal use.
Regardless its plainly obvious you used the method incorrectly since the cut offsets don't contain the locations within the font.
Just use the resource editor or Ant task to create a font and then set that font either via the theme or by manually extracting it from the resource file.
I draw some text on screen using ID3DXFont::DrawText. This text should be displayed the same regardless of screen resolution.
For example, if screen resolution is low, text wrapped and when it is higher text is not wrapped. How can I avoid such situation? I want text size to be connected to screen resolution so if resolution is lower I want the text to be relatively smaller so that no wrapping happens. Is there any way?
Thanks in advance
Below is a logical solution. It doesn't have any of the code or procedures needed to make work in direct X but having done something similar outside of DirectX I wanted to share the logic
Working on whatever default screen resolution you want set the font to be the size needed.
Find the percentage of the screen height the font size you chose takes up.
Then having stored that value when you go to render again, in the final version of the program, calculate the font size based on the screen size and the percentage
What I was working in had functions like GetTextHeight and properties on the font size to allow you to set the height (which in turn set the font size appropriately). So if can find anything similar to this in DirectX than this could be a route for you to take.
