get_by_name


Description:

[ Version ( since = "3.0" ) ]
public static unowned Font? get_by_name (string name)

Returns a font with the given name.

If several fonts are named identically, the one which is returned by this function should be considered random. This can be used when you know you won't have multiple fonts of this name or that you don't want to choose (non-interactive scripts, etc.). If you need more control, you should use [func@fonts_get_list] instead. Returns null when no font exists of that name.

Parameters:

name

The name of the font.

Returns:

The font.
