Refers to the density of a typeface, in terms of the lightness or heaviness of the strokes.

public value class FontWeight : IFormattable

[System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter(typeof(System.Windows.FontWeightConverter))]
[System.Windows.Localizability(System.Windows.LocalizationCategory.None)]
public struct FontWeight : IFormattable

[<System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter(typeof(System.Windows.FontWeightConverter))>]

type FontWeight = struct
    interface IFormattable

Implements IFormattable

Inheritance: Object

ValueType

Attributes: TypeConverterAttribute LocalizabilityAttribute

Implements: IFormattable

Examples

In the following code example, the FontWeight is set to "UltraBold".

<TextBlock FontWeight="UltraBold" FontFamily="Gil Sans MT">Hello, world</TextBlock>

Remarks

Weight differences are generally differentiated by an increased stroke or thickness that is associated with a given character in a typeface, as compared to a "normal" character from that same typeface.

Note Not all weights are available for all typefaces. When a weight is not available for a typeface, the closest matching weight is returned.
