you con change fonts they change size too

.text((125,200),u'text',0x998800,font=u'Alb17b')

if you wont to know all fonts for you phone

import appuifw
print appuifw.available_fonts()

[y.a.k]

If you have a somewhat newer phone (2nd ed. FP2 or newer AFAIK), you can also do something like this:

.text((125,200),u'text',0x998800,font=('normal', 30))

where 30 is the font size. Or even add a flags field:

.text((125,200),u'text',0x998800,font=('normal', 30, graphics.FONT_ANTIALIAS))

to enable antialiasing (there are other interesting flags, check PyS60 docs).

.text((125,200),u'text',0x998800,font=('normal', 30))

hi y.a.k
why i am getting an error when using the above code as
invalid font specification.

[croozeus]

Are you using it on the canvas?

Please post the full line of code where these Fonts wish to be applied.

Best Regards,
Croozeus

hey croozeus
the code i have posted below is almost complete. then also let me post it again

canvas.text((125,200),u'text',0x998800,font=('normal', 30))

hope except asking for code you have the solution also.

[croozeus]

Use

canvas.text((125,200),u'text',0x998800,font=('normal', 30))

Works with my device

BR,

@gaba88

Hmmm. Could you try this code? Because it works for me.

import appuifw, e32

canvas=appuifw.app.body=appuifw.Canvas()
canvas.text((125,200),u'text',0x998800,font=('normal',30))

a=e32.Ao_lock()
appuifw.app.exit_key_handler=a.signal
a.wait()

@croozeus

Somethings's wrong with your code, unmatched parenthesis.

[gaba88]

hi y.a.k
again getting the same error as invalid font specification as i was getting previously.
I am testing it in n70.
@croozeus
why to use self.canvas instead of canvas???

Yes, I had fixed it!

[gaba88]

hi y.a.k
i think the problem is with the font which we have specified as i tried that without font specification and it worked.

[y.a.k]

Still not working? Odd. Maybe you should post your whole code and the exact error traceback. Please do not retype the code on the PC, send it as it is and copy/paste here.

hi y.a.k
the code is the same you posted i just want to change the text size on canvas.

[y.a.k]

Post the exact error message. It is never just "Invalid font specification". There's always a hint after this sentence:
- wrong number of elements in tuple
- expected string, unicode or tuple
- expected unicode or None as font name

Which one do you get?

[gaba88]

hi y.a.k
i get only just invalid font specification nothing like that you mentioned.
and the only problem is wid th font part i am investigating it.
moreover can anybody else try this code and verify the problem.
