QFontCombox not returning the font family

Alveena

How do I make QFontComboBox to return a list of font family only but not the complete dialog pop-up with font style, point size and other style techniques(kerning, strikeout,underline). I'm doing something like this:

QFont Vizkit3DWidget::getFont()const                                                          
{ 
           QFontComboBox *dialog = new QFontComboBox();
           QFont font=dialog->currentFont();
           return font.family(),
    
}

void Vizkit3DWidget::setFont(QFont font)
{
           QFontComboBox *dialog = new QFontComboBox();
           dialog->setCurrentFont(font);
}

Hi and welcome to devnet,

If you want a list of the font families then why not just use QFontDatabase::families ?

@SGaist How do I set Kerning(),Strikeout,Underline() to disable in the above code since they are always called after the QFontComboBox constructor and even if set to disable, dialogbox still shows them.

@SGaist Actually I'm trying to set the selected QFont onto an osg::text3D node, setFont(), SetStyle(),SetCharactersize() ->extracting each of these seperatle from QFont applying them on text3D.

The code you show above does not much.

You should explain exactly what you are trying to achieve because you are talking about a dialog yet create a combo box that you don't even show.
