Getting a RichTextCtrl's default font size in wxPython
- by Sam
I have a RichTextCtrl, which I've modified to accept HTML input. The HTML parsing code needs to be able to increase and decrease the font size as it gets tags like <font size="-1">, but I can't work out how to get the control's default font size to adjust.
I tried the following (where self is my RichTextCtrl):
fred = wx.richtext.RichTextAttr()
self.GetStyle(0,fred)
print fred.GetFontSize()
However, the final instruction fails, because GetStyle turns fred into a TextAttrEx and so I get AttributeError: 'TextAttrEx' object has no attribute 'GetFontSize'. Am I missing a vastly easier way of getting the default font size?
