GET STYLE SHEET INFO 


 

GET STYLE SHEET INFO ( styleSheetName ; font ; size ; styles ) 
Parameter Type   Description
styleSheetName  Text in Name of style sheet
font  Text in Character font
size  Longint in Font size
styles  Longint in Style value

The GET STYLE SHEET INFO command returns the current configuration of the style sheet designated in the styleSheetName parameter.

In styleSheetName, you pass the name of the style sheet as defined in the Design mode. To designate an automatic style sheet, you can use one of the following constants, found in the "Font Styles" theme: 

Constant Type Value Comment
Automatic style sheet String __automatic__ Used by default for all objects
Automatic style sheet_additional String __automatic_additional_text__ Supported by static text, fields and variables only. Used for additional text in dialog boxes.
Automatic style sheet_main String __automatic_main_text__ Supported by static text, fields and variables only. Used for main text in dialog boxes.
In font, the command returns the name of the font associated with the style sheet for the current platform. 

In size, the command returns the size in points of the font associated with the style sheet for the current platform. 

In styles, the command returns a value corresponding to the style(s) associated with the style sheet for the current platform. You can compare the value received with the following constants, found in the "Font Styles" theme: 

Constant Type Value
Bold Longint 1
Bold and Italic Longint 3
Bold and Underline Longint 5
Italic Longint 2
Italic and Underline Longint 6
Plain Longint 0
Underline Longint 4

If the command is executed correctly, the OK system variable is set to 1. Otherwise (for example, if the styleSheetName does not exist), it is set to 0.
