"font" GdkFont* : Read "font-name" gchar* : Read / Write "preview-text" gchar* : Read / Write
The GtkFontSelection widget lists the available fonts, styles and sizes, allowing the user to select a font. It is used in the GtkFontSelectionDialog widget to provide a dialog box for selecting fonts.
To set the font which is initially selected, use
gtk_font_selection_set_font_name().
To get the selected font use gtk_font_selection_get_font_name().
To change the text which is shown in the preview area, use
gtk_font_selection_set_preview_text().
typedef struct _GtkFontSelection GtkFontSelection;
The GtkFontSelection struct contains private data only, and should only be accessed using the functions below.
GtkWidget *         gtk_font_selection_new              (void);
Creates a new GtkFontSelection.
| Returns : | a n ew GtkFontSelection | 
gchar*              gtk_font_selection_get_font_name    (GtkFontSelection *fontsel);
Gets the currently-selected font name.
Note that this can be a different string than what you set with 
gtk_font_selection_set_font_name(), as the font selection widget may 
normalize font names and thus return a string with a different structure. 
For example, "Helvetica Italic Bold 12" could be normalized to 
"Helvetica Bold Italic 12". Use pango_font_description_equal()
if you want to compare two font descriptions.
| 
 | a GtkFontSelection | 
| Returns : | A string with the name of the current font, or NULLif 
    no font is selected. You must free this string withg_free(). | 
gboolean gtk_font_selection_set_font_name (GtkFontSelection *fontsel,const gchar *fontname);
Sets the currently-selected font.
Note that the fontsel needs to know the screen in which it will appear 
for this to work; this can be guaranteed by simply making sure that the 
fontsel is inserted in a toplevel window before you call this function.
| 
 | a GtkFontSelection | 
| 
 | a font name like "Helvetica 12" or "Times Bold 18" | 
| Returns : | TRUEif the font could be set successfully;FALSEif no 
    such font exists or if thefontseldoesn't belong to a particular 
    screen yet. | 
const gchar*        gtk_font_selection_get_preview_text (GtkFontSelection *fontsel);
Gets the text displayed in the preview area.
| 
 | a GtkFontSelection | 
| Returns : | the text displayed in the preview area. This string is owned by the widget and should not be modified or freed | 
void gtk_font_selection_set_preview_text (GtkFontSelection *fontsel,const gchar *text);
Sets the text displayed in the preview area.
The text is used to show how the selected font looks.
| 
 | a GtkFontSelection | 
| 
 | the text to display in the preview area | 
PangoFontFace *     gtk_font_selection_get_face         (GtkFontSelection *fontsel);
Gets the PangoFontFace representing the selected font group details (i.e. family, slant, weight, width, etc).
| 
 | a GtkFontSelection | 
| Returns : | A PangoFontFace representing the selected font 
    group details. The returned object is owned by fontseland
    must not be modified or freed. | 
Since 2.14
GtkWidget *         gtk_font_selection_get_face_list    (GtkFontSelection *fontsel);
This returns the GtkTreeView which lists all styles available for the selected font. For example, 'Regular', 'Bold', etc.
| 
 | a GtkFontSelection | 
| Returns : | A GtkWidget that is part of fontsel | 
Since 2.14
PangoFontFamily *   gtk_font_selection_get_family       (GtkFontSelection *fontsel);
Gets the PangoFontFamily representing the selected font family.
| 
 | a GtkFontSelection | 
| Returns : | A PangoFontFamily representing the selected font
    family. Font families are a collection of font faces. The 
    returned object is owned by fontseland must not be modified 
    or freed. | 
Since 2.14
gint                gtk_font_selection_get_size         (GtkFontSelection *fontsel);
The selected font size.
| 
 | a GtkFontSelection | 
| Returns : | A n integer representing the selected font size, or -1 if no font size is selected. | 
Since 2.14
GtkWidget *         gtk_font_selection_get_family_list  (GtkFontSelection *fontsel);
This returns the GtkTreeView that lists font families, for example, 'Sans', 'Serif', etc.
| 
 | a GtkFontSelection | 
| Returns : | A GtkWidget that is part of fontsel | 
Since 2.14
GtkWidget *         gtk_font_selection_get_preview_entry
                                                        (GtkFontSelection *fontsel);
This returns the GtkEntry used to display the font as a preview.
| 
 | a GtkFontSelection | 
| Returns : | A GtkWidget that is part of fontsel | 
Since 2.14
GtkWidget *         gtk_font_selection_get_size_entry   (GtkFontSelection *fontsel);
This returns the GtkEntry used to allow the user to edit the font number manually instead of selecting it from the list of font sizes.
| 
 | a GtkFontSelection | 
| Returns : | A GtkWidget that is part of fontsel | 
Since 2.14
