TEXT.fontFace

[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Player SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer. MediaPlayer has been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer instead of Windows Media Player SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

The fontFace attribute specifies or retrieves the typeface for the Text control.

        elementID.fontFace

Possible Values

This attribute is a read/write String.

Remarks

This attribute can be the name of any valid font available on Windows. Windows Media Player will not support installing fonts, so choose a font that you know will be on the intended system.

If the fontFace specified is not available on the user's system, the Text control defaults to the Windows system font.

See the value attribute for a sample illustrating how the attributes of the TEXT element are used.
