Custom Fonts Widget – Tkinter CustomTkinter 16

In this video we’ll look at the custom fonts widget in CustomTkinter and Python.

The Font widget allows you to update all sorts of things dealing with fonts.

The benefit of using the widget instead of just updating the font attribute in another widget, is that you can update the fonts at any time when you use a font widget.

You can’t do that otherwise.

Python Code: ctk_fonts.py
(Github Code)

from tkinter import *
import customtkinter

customtkinter.set_appearance_mode("dark")  # Modes: system (default), light, dark
customtkinter.set_default_color_theme("dark-blue")  # Themes: blue (default), dark-blue, green

#root = Tk()
root = customtkinter.CTk()

root.title('Tkinter.com - CustomTkinter Fonts')
root.iconbitmap('images/codemy.ico')
root.geometry('400x200')

def change():
	my_font.configure(underline=False, overstrike=False, size=22, slant="roman")

my_font = customtkinter.CTkFont(family="Helvetica", size=44, 
	weight="bold", slant="italic", underline=True, overstrike=True) #weight bold/normal, slant=italic/roman

my_label = customtkinter.CTkLabel(root, text="This is Text", font=my_font)
my_label.pack(pady=40)

my_button = customtkinter.CTkButton(root, text="Change Text", command=change)
my_button.pack()



root.mainloop()
