SystemFont

Inherits: Font < Resource < RefCounted < Object

A font loaded from a system font. Falls back to a default theme font if not implemented on the host OS.

Description

SystemFont loads a font from a system font with the first matching name from font_names.

It will attempt to match font style, but it's not guaranteed.

The returned font might be part of a font collection or be a variable font with OpenType "weight", "width" and/or "italic" features set.

You can create FontVariation of the system font for fine control over its features.

Note: This class is implemented on iOS, Linux, macOS and Windows, on other platforms it will fallback to default theme font.
