Namespace: OIV.Inventor.Nodes
Assembly: OIV.Inventor (in OIV.Inventor.dll) Version: 2023.1.3.0 (2023.1.3)

Syntax

C++

Copy

public static void GetAvailableFonts(
	out string[] strings,
	bool clearDB
)

Public Shared Sub GetAvailableFonts ( 
	<OutAttribute> ByRef strings As String(),
	clearDB As Boolean
)

public:
static void GetAvailableFonts(
	[OutAttribute] array<String^>^% strings, 
	bool clearDB
)

static member GetAvailableFonts : 
        strings : string[] byref * 
        clearDB : bool -> unit

Parameters

strings: Type: SystemString
clearDB: Type: SystemBoolean

Remarks

The retrieved string can be passed directly to the SoFont::name field (the "(font file)" substring will be ignored). Internally, this method builds a font name database. It scans some defined directories and registers the association "Name : Style" -- "font file". Passing the clearDB parameter as TRUE makes sure the database is cleared before it is created.
