FontVariation

A variation of a font with additional settings.

Provides OpenType variations, simulated bold / slant, and additional font settings like OpenType features and extra spacing.

To use simulated bold font variant:

var fv = FontVariation.new()
fv.base_font = load("res://BarlowCondensed-Regular.ttf")
fv.variation_embolden = 1.2
$Label.add_theme_font_override("font", fv)
$Label.add_theme_font_size_override("font_size", 64)

To set the coordinate of multiple variation axes:

var fv = FontVariation.new();
var ts = TextServerManager.get_primary_interface()
fv.base_font = load("res://BarlowCondensed-Regular.ttf")
fv.variation_opentype = { ts.name_to_tag("wght"): 900, ts.name_to_tag("custom_hght"): 900 }

If is not equal to zero, emboldens the font outlines. Negative values reduce the outline thickness.

Note: Emboldened fonts might have self-intersecting outlines, which will prevent MSDF fonts and TextMesh from working correctly.

int

variation_face_index

:int

Dictionary

variation_opentype

()

:Dictionary

Font OpenType variation coordinates. More info: OpenType variation tags.

Note: This Dictionary uses OpenType tags as keys. Variation axes can be identified both by tags (int, e.g. 0x77678674) and names (String, e.g. wght). Some axes might be accessible by multiple names. For example, wght refers to the same axis as weight. Tags on the other hand are unique. To convert between names and tags, use TextServer.name_to_tag() and TextServer.tag_to_name().
