Detailed Description

A QML component unifying text presentation in GCompris.

GCText wraps QtQuick's Text to provide

(1) a uniform font-family,
(2) DPI based automatic font-scaling and
(3) application-wide manual font-sizing.

Activities should almost always use the fontSize property to define font sizes, it implements both (2) and (3). Do not set font.pointSize directly, or GCText's automatic scaling will be deactivated. If you really need to enforce a fixed font size (which might be the case for dialogs) use the fixFontSize property.

The xxxSize properties are meant to be enum-like values for often needed font sizes. (QtQuick does not support enum definitions on QML layer, cf. Qt issue #14861.)

Property Documentation

bool GCText::fixFontSize

Whether to not apply ApplicationSettings.baseFontSize.

Set to true if you don't want to scale fonts. Used in some rare cases like for dialogs.

Definition at line 98 of file GCText.qml.

int GCText::fontSize

Font size wrapping font.pointSize and applying font-scaling.

Font-sizes are best specified using the fontSize property, which wraps font.pointSize to take the DPI of the display into account. If font.pointSize is used directly text might appear to small on some devices.

If you really need to specify font.pixelSize instead of pointSize, you need to clear font.pointSize explicitly with NaN:

font.pointSize: NaN

Default is 14.
