Hello
I am wondering how a short version of constructing a StringMorph with a particular TextStyle looks like.
The version which is attached works fine.
The question is mainly
How do I replace
(TextConstants at: #LiberationSans) fontArray at: 7
with something which directly refers to the point size?
And as a second question how do I get from the number of desired screen pixels to the closest font size?
Regards Hannes
P.S.
I had changed
TTCFont pointSizes
"The default sizes that are created when a TextStyle is created. You can add new sizes by the new-size feature." ^ #(9 12 15 24 36).
in my image _before_ importing a TrueType font.
TTCFont pointSizes
is now
pointSizes
"The default sizes that are created when a TextStyle is created. You can add new sizes by the new-size feature." ^ #(9 12 15 24 36 48 60).
And the font loaded is LiberationSans
https://pagure.io/liberation-fonts
The Liberation Fonts are intended to be replacements for the three most commonly used fonts on Microsoft systems: - Times New Roman, - Arial and - Courier \ New.

With Cuis, if you have the font in the 'AdditionalFontData' directory, maybe the following?
| w nam | nam := 'LiberationSans'. w := AbstractFont familyName: nam aroundPointSize: 10. (StringMorph contents: 'Some text in "', nam, '" font.' font: w) openInHand.
I don't have your TrueType font, but the above works for the DejaVu Sans Mono font. This example appears in Terse Guide.
