self.img.text - how to set text style

[novis]

Hello Forum,
i got a real beginners question.
I still don't understand how to set the style of text on a background image.
At the moment I use the following code to display text:

self.img.text((3, 40),u'Test ',0xffffff)

I tried to change only the font by doing this:

self.img.text((3, 40),u'Test ',font=u'Albi17b')

and it works fine.

But how can I change the style?
My guess was this:

self.img.text((3, 40),u'Test ',style=u'STYLE_BOLD')

but this turned out to be incorrect.

Can someone please give an example on how to change the style of my text?

thx

Hi novis,

I checked the doc and source to be sure and it seams that it is not supported. It only accepts font and fill.

Thx again lfd,
i wanted to display text in bold letters. Now I'll try to find a different font.

This is documented on page 31 of the PyS60 Library Reference.

Do this:

self.img.text((3,40), u'Test', font=(None,None,FONT_BOLD))

Yes, there are two ways to turn on bold, italic - one that's used in appuifw.Text and one that's used everywhere else. Yes, this is a bit confusing. If you want to save your trouble, use the FONT_xxx flags and not appuifw.Text style attributes.
