Property Descriptions

• void set_antialiasing ( FontAntialiasing value )
• FontAntialiasing get_antialiasing ( )

Font anti-aliasing mode.

PackedByteArray data = PackedByteArray()

• void set_data ( PackedByteArray value )
• PackedByteArray get_data ( )

int fixed_size = 0

• void set_fixed_size ( int value )
• int get_fixed_size ( )

Font size, used only for the bitmap fonts.

FixedSizeScaleMode fixed_size_scale_mode = 0

• void set_fixed_size_scale_mode ( FixedSizeScaleMode value )
• FixedSizeScaleMode get_fixed_size_scale_mode ( )

Scaling mode, used only for the bitmap fonts with fixed_size greater than zero.

String font_name = ""

• void set_font_name ( String value )
• String get_font_name ( )

Font family name.

int font_stretch = 100

• void set_font_stretch ( int value )
• int get_font_stretch ( )

Font stretch amount, compared to a normal width. A percentage value between 50% and 200%.

BitField<FontStyle> font_style = 0

• void set_font_style ( BitField<FontStyle> value )
• BitField<FontStyle> get_font_style ( )

Font style flags, see FontStyle.

int font_weight = 400

• void set_font_weight ( int value )
• int get_font_weight ( )

Weight (boldness) of the font. A value in the 100...999 range, normal font weight is 400, bold font weight is 700.

bool force_autohinter = false

• void set_force_autohinter ( bool value )
• bool is_force_autohinter ( )

If set to true, auto-hinting is supported and preferred over font built-in hinting. Used by dynamic fonts only (MSDF fonts don't support hinting).

bool generate_mipmaps = false

• void set_generate_mipmaps ( bool value )
• bool get_generate_mipmaps ( )

If set to true, generate mipmaps for the font textures.

Hinting hinting = 1

• void set_hinting ( Hinting value )
• Hinting get_hinting ( )

Font hinting mode. Used by dynamic fonts only.

int msdf_pixel_range = 16

• void set_msdf_pixel_range ( int value )
• int get_msdf_pixel_range ( )

The width of the range around the shape between the minimum and maximum representable signed distance. If using font outlines, msdf_pixel_range must be set to at least twice the size of the largest font outline. The default msdf_pixel_range value of 16 allows outline sizes up to 8 to look correct.

int msdf_size = 48

• void set_msdf_size ( int value )
• int get_msdf_size ( )

Source font size used to generate MSDF textures. Higher values allow for more precision, but are slower to render and require more memory. Only increase this value if you notice a visible lack of precision in glyph rendering.

bool multichannel_signed_distance_field = false

• void set_multichannel_signed_distance_field ( bool value )
• bool is_multichannel_signed_distance_field ( )

If set to true, glyphs of all sizes are rendered using single multichannel signed distance field (MSDF) generated from the dynamic font vector data. Since this approach does not rely on rasterizing the font every time its size changes, this allows for resizing the font in real-time without any performance penalty. Text will also not look grainy for Controls that are scaled down (or for Label3Ds viewed from a long distance). As a downside, font hinting is not available with MSDF. The lack of font hinting may result in less crisp and less readable fonts at small sizes.

Note: If using font outlines, msdf_pixel_range must be set to at least twice the size of the largest font outline.

Note: MSDF font rendering does not render glyphs with overlapping shapes correctly. Overlapping shapes are not valid per the OpenType standard, but are still commonly found in many font files, especially those converted by Google Fonts. To avoid issues with overlapping glyphs, consider downloading the font file directly from the type foundry instead of relying on Google Fonts.

Dictionary opentype_feature_overrides = {}

• void set_opentype_feature_overrides ( Dictionary value )
• Dictionary get_opentype_feature_overrides ( )

Font OpenType feature set override.

float oversampling = 0.0

• void set_oversampling ( float value )
• float get_oversampling ( )

Font oversampling factor. If set to 0.0, the global oversampling factor is used instead. Used by dynamic fonts only (MSDF fonts ignore oversampling).

String style_name = ""

• void set_font_style_name ( String value )
• String get_font_style_name ( )

Font style name.

SubpixelPositioning subpixel_positioning = 1

• void set_subpixel_positioning ( SubpixelPositioning value )
• SubpixelPositioning get_subpixel_positioning ( )

Font glyph subpixel positioning mode. Subpixel positioning provides shaper text and better kerning for smaller font sizes, at the cost of higher memory usage and lower font rasterization speed. Use TextServer.SUBPIXEL_POSITIONING_AUTO to automatically enable it based on the font size.
