Google subverted the 1998 rules of website survival: Beg, plead, trick, force your users into clicking ads. Make your downloads not work unless ads are clicked. Generate fake clicks. Clicks, clicks, clicks or die. Google survived without selling our clicks to anyone else. They looked like a beacon of light in a web of 99% pure sleaze.

Looked at in that light, they're as pure-as-snow as they were in 1998. They're still chugging along "for free", and if their search isn't what it's was, it's still on the "good" side of okay. We just finally understand the implications of what they've been selling, and to whom, all along.

QFontDialog(3qt)														  QFontDialog(3qt)

NAME
QFontDialog - Dialog widget for selecting a font SYNOPSIS
#include <qfontdialog.h> Inherits QDialog. Static Public Members <li class=fn>QFont getFont ( bool * ok, const QFont & initial, QWidget * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 ) <li class=fn>QFont getFont ( bool * ok, QWidget * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 ) DESCRIPTION
The QFontDialog class provides a dialog widget for selecting a font. The usual way to use this class is to call one of the static convenience functions, e.g. getFont(). Examples: bool ok; QFont font = QFontDialog::getFont( &ok, QFont( "Helvetica [Cronyx]", 10 ), this ); if ( ok ) { // font is set to the font the user selected } else { // the user canceled the dialog; font is set to the initial // value, in this case Helvetica [Cronyx], 10 } The dialog can also be used to set a widget's font directly: myWidget.setFont( QFontDialog::getFont( 0, myWidget.font() ) ); If the user clicks OK the font they chose will be used for myWidget, and if they click Cancel the original font is used. See also QFont, QFontInfo, QFontMetrics, and Dialog Classes. [Image Omitted] MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
QFont QFontDialog::getFont ( bool * ok, const QFont & initial, QWidget * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 ) [static] Executes a modal font dialog and returns a font. If the user clicks OK, the selected font is returned. If the user clicks Cancel, the initial font is returned. The dialog is called name, with the parent parent. initial is the initially selected font. If the ok parameter is not-null, *ok is set to TRUE if the user clicked OK, and set to FALSE if the user clicked Cancel. This static function is less flexible than the full QFontDialog object, but is convenient and easy to use. Examples: bool ok; QFont font = QFontDialog::getFont( &ok, QFont( "Times", 12 ), this ); if ( ok ) { // font is set to the font the user selected } else { // the user canceled the dialog; font is set to the initial // value, in this case Times, 12. } The dialog can also be used to set a widget's font directly: myWidget.setFont( QFontDialog::getFont( 0, myWidget.font() ) ); In this example, if the user clicks OK the font they chose will be used, and if they click Cancel the original font is used. Examples: QFont QFontDialog::getFont ( bool * ok, QWidget * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 ) [static] This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function. Executes a modal font dialog and returns a font. If the user clicks OK, the selected font is returned. If the user clicks Cancel, the Qt default font is returned. The dialog is called name, with parent parent. If the ok parameter is not-null, *ok is set to TRUE if the user clicked OK, and FALSE if the user clicked Cancel. This static function is less functional than the full QFontDialog object, but is convenient and easy to use. Example: bool ok; QFont font = QFontDialog::getFont( &ok, this ); if ( ok ) { // font is set to the font the user selected } else { // the user canceled the dialog; font is set to the default // application font, QApplication::font() } SEE ALSO
