utils.fontpicker

wanted_font = utils.fontpicker (name, size, colour)

• name - preferred name (eg. name of the currently-selected font)
• size - preferred size in points

• colour - colour as an RGB colour code (eg. 0 for black)

• strikeout - 1 if strikeout chosen, 0 if not
• italic - 1 if italic chosen, 0 if not
• bold - 1 if bold chosen, 0 if not
• style - the style as a string (eg. "Bold Italic")
