The implementation is mostly done in XP. I implemented the GTK2 code as
well. There's 1 bug left in the code which I can't seem to fix, which is
also present in the Font dialog: the first time the window pops up, no
font is displayed. I can't figure this out, could someone else look into
this? Also, the font lookup feels quite slow (using XFT), and I suspect
this is caused by the XAP_Preview_FontPreview class which I used (it
already existed, I didn't create it);
If you want to add this to another platform as well, just do the
following:
1) write a class XAP_<Platform>FontPreview which should just create and
show a popupwindow with a drawing area in it. Have a look at
XAP_UnixFontPreview to see how this works ( only 30 lines of code! )
2) instantiate this class in your toolbar code when the font combobox is
opened. When the font name is changed, call the functions
XAP_<Platform>FontPreview->setFont(<selected fontname>);
XAP_<Platform>FontPreview->draw();
Have a look at ev_UnixToolbar.cpp lines 228 to 245 for the unix
implementation
That's all!
