FontChooser.getFont

string getFont()

Gets the currently-selected font name.

Note that this can be a different string than what you set with [gtk.font_chooser.FontChooser.setFont], as the font chooser widget may normalize font names and thus return a string with a different structure. For example, “Helvetica Italic Bold 12” could be normalized to “Helvetica Bold Italic 12”.

Use [pango.font_description.FontDescription.equal] if you want to compare two font descriptions.

Returns

A string with the name

of the current font, or null if no font is selected. You must free this string with [glib.global.gfree].
