class CTypefaceStore : public CBase;
Typeface store abstract base interface.
This class provides the interface to a store for typefaces.
See also CFontStore.
CBase
-
Base class for all classes to be instantiated on the heap.
CTypefaceStore
- Typeface store abstract base interface.
Defined in CTypefaceStore
:
AddFontL(CFont *)
Adds a hold, by a client of the typeface store, on the specified font.BaselineOffset(TInt,TFontPrintPosition)

Interface status: | deprecated | Use GetNearestFontToDesignHeightInTwips |
virtual TInt GetNearestFontInTwips(CFont *&aFont, const TFontSpec &aFontSpec)=0;
Gets the font which is the nearest to the given font specification.
When the font is no longer needed, call ReleaseFont()
.
Note that this deprecated function is replaced by the new GetNearestFontToDesignHeightInTwips()
yielding (virtually) the same result. However clients are strongly encouraged to use the new GetNearestFontToMaxHeightInTwips()
function instead. This will guarantee that every character within any given text string will fit within the given amount
of twips, whereas the design height is an aesthetic unit decided by the font designer without strict physical meaning, which
may result in cropped characters.

virtual TInt GetNearestFontToMaxHeightInTwips(CFont *&aFont, const TFontSpec &aFontSpec, TInt aMaxHeight)=0;
Gets the font which is the nearest to the given font specification.
When the font is no longer needed, call ReleaseFont()
.
The font and bitmap server returns a pointer to the nearest matching font from those available. Matches to max height of font - this does its best to return a font that will fit within the maximum height specified (but note that variations due to hinting algorithms may rarely result in this height being exceeded by up to one pixel). Problems can also be encountered with bitmap fonts where the typeface exists but doesn't have a font small enough.
|
|
virtual TInt NumTypefaces() const=0;
Gets the number of typefaces supported by the typeface store.
|
virtual void TypefaceSupport(TTypefaceSupport &aTypefaceSupport, TInt aTypefaceIndex) const=0;
Gets typeface information for a specified typeface index.
This information is returned in aTypefaceSupport, and includes the typeface name and typeface attributes, the number of font heights, the maximum and minimum font heights, and whether it is a scaleable typeface.
|
virtual TInt FontHeightInTwips(TInt aTypefaceIndex, TInt aHeightIndex) const=0;
Gets the height of the font with specified height and typeface indices, in twips.
The value returned is rounded up or down to the nearest font height in twips.
|
|
IMPORT_C void ReleaseFont(CFont *aFont);
Releases the hold of a typeface store client on a specified font.
Decrements the access-count for the specified font by one. If this reduces the access-count to zero then the font is no longer needed by any client, and is deleted from the typeface store list.
|
IMPORT_C static TInt BaselineOffset(TInt aHeight, TFontPrintPosition aPos);
Gets the baseline offset, in twips, for any font in subscript or superscript form.
If the print position is normal then zero is returned. If it is superscript then the baseline offset returned is a percentage, KSuperscriptOffsetPercentage, of aHeight. If it is subscript then the baseline offset returned is a percentage, KSubscriptOffsetPercentage, of aHeight.
|
|
IMPORT_C static TInt SuperSubHeight(TInt aHeight, TFontPrintPosition aPos);
Gets the height for a font in subscript or superscript form.
If the print position is normal then aHeight is returned unchanged. If it is superscript or subscript then the height returned is a percentage, KSuperSubScalingPercentage, of aHeight.
|
|
protected: IMPORT_C void AddFontL(CFont *aFont);
Adds a hold, by a client of the typeface store, on the specified font.
If the specified font is not currently accessed by any clients of the typeface store then the font is added to the font list and the access count set to 1. If it is currently accessed then the access count for the font is incremented by 1.
|
protected: IMPORT_C TBool IncrementFontCount(const CFont *aFont);
Search for the font in iFontAccess and increment its count.
|
|
protected: CArrayFixFlat< TFontAccess > * iFontAccess;
A list of fonts accessed by clients of the typeface store, which pairs a font with a count of the number of clients accessing the font.
Implemented as an array of CTypefaceStore::TFontAccess
objects.
An object is added to this array for every font accessed. If the font is released by all clients, and the access count drops to zero, the font is removed from the list.
