The FontChooserWidget widget lists the available fonts, styles and sizes, allowing the user to select a font.
It is used in the FontChooserDialog widget to provide a dialog box for selecting fonts.
To set the font which is initially selected, use set_font or set_font_desc.
To get the selected font use get_font or get_font_desc.
To change the text which is shown in the preview area, use set_preview_text.
GtkFontChooserWidget has a single CSS node with name fontchooser.
Example: FontChooserWidget:
public class Application : Gtk.Window {
public Application () {
// Prepare Gtk.Window:
this.title = "My Gtk.FontChooserWidget";
this.window_position = Gtk.WindowPosition.CENTER;
this.destroy.connect (Gtk.main_quit);
// The button:
Gtk.FontChooserWidget widget = new Gtk.FontChooserWidget ();
this.add (widget);
widget.font_activated.connect ((font) => {
print ("%s\n", font);
print (" font: %s\n", widget.get_font ().to_string ());
