Inherits From:
TFontScaleStyle
Inherited By:
None.
Purpose:
TFontWeightStyle derives from TFontScaleStyle and specifies the weight or blackness and boldness of the font. The weight value is normalized to range [-1, 1], which corresponds to the range [minValue, maxValue]. Font names often indicate the weight of the font by including strings such as bold, semi-bold, or black in them.
Instantiation:
Allocate on the heap or the stack.
Deriving Classes:
Derive a class from this class for any specialization. The value returned from GetCategory should be preserved and the pure virtual function GetName must be overridden to return an unique name.
Concurrency:
Multithread safe.
Resource Use:
No special requirements.
- TFontWeightStyle ()
- TFontWeightStyle (GCoordinate)
- TFontWeightStyle (const TFontWeightStyle &)

API.
Purpose:
- Default constructor.
- Creates a new TFontWeightStyle object and initializes the weight to the specified GCoordinate's value.
- Copy constructor.
Calling Context:
- Called by the stream-in operators.
- Call this function directly.

Parameters:
- Takes no parameters.
- GCoordinate -The initial weight for this object.
- const TFontWeightStyle & -The object to be copied.
Return Value:
None.
