An utility class that allows developers to use the Font Awesome with some SWT Widgets.
Contents
Introduction
The utility class is called FontAwesome. It contains 2 methods :
-
getFont()returns the FontAwesome font with a size of 14px -
getFont(int size)returns the FontAwesome font for the given size
It contains also a list of constants, each one associated to an icon.
Usage
All widgets that have a setFont() and a setText() methods can use FontAwesome.
- You have to call the method
FontAwesome.getFont()to get the relevant font. - You set this font to the widget
- You select the desired icon and get the corresponding String constant in the class FontAwesome.
- You call the method setText() of the widget. Use a FontAwesome constant on as parameter (like FontAwesome.code for instance)
Here is an example with a Label :
Label text = new Label(shell, SWT.NONE); text.setFont(FontAwesome.getFont(22)); text.setText(FontAwesome.code);
Examples
2 examples called FontAwesomeSnippet.java and FontAwesomeSnippet2.java are located in the plugin org.eclipse.nebula.widgets.fontawesome.snippets.
