Class FlatRobotoFont


  • public class FlatRobotoFont
    extends Object
    The Roboto font family.

    Font home page: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto
    GitHub project: https://github.com/googlefonts/roboto

    To install the font, invoke following once (e.g. in your main() method; on AWT thread).

    For lazy loading use:

    
     FlatRobotoFont.installLazy();
     

    Or load immediately with:

    
     FlatRobotoFont.install();
     // or
     FlatRobotoFont.installBasic();
     FlatRobotoFont.installLight();
     FlatRobotoFont.installSemiBold();
     

    Use as application font (invoke before setting up FlatLaf):

    
     FlatLaf.setPreferredFontFamily( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY );
     FlatLaf.setPreferredLightFontFamily( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY_LIGHT );
     FlatLaf.setPreferredSemiboldFontFamily( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY_SEMIBOLD );
     

    Create single fonts:

    
     new Font( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY, Font.PLAIN, 12 );
     new Font( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY, Font.ITALIC, 12 );
     new Font( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY, Font.BOLD, 12 );
     new Font( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY, Font.BOLD | Font.ITALIC, 12 );
     new Font( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY_LIGHT, Font.PLAIN, 12 );
     new Font( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY_LIGHT, Font.ITALIC, 12 );
     new Font( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY_SEMIBOLD, Font.PLAIN, 12 );
     new Font( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY_SEMIBOLD, Font.ITALIC, 12 );
     

    If using lazy loading, invoke one of following before creating the font:

    
     FontUtils.loadFontFamily( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY );
     FontUtils.loadFontFamily( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY_LIGHT );
     FontUtils.loadFontFamily( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY_SEMIBOLD );
     

    E.g.:

    
     FontUtils.loadFontFamily( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY );
     Font font = new Font( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY, Font.PLAIN, 12 );
     

    Or use following:

    
     Font font = FontUtils.getCompositeFont( FlatRobotoFont.FAMILY, Font.PLAIN, 12 );
     
    • Method Detail

      • installLazy

        public static void installLazy()
        Registers the fonts for lazy loading via FontUtils.registerFontFamilyLoader(String, Runnable).

        This is the preferred method (when using FlatLaf) to avoid unnecessary loading of maybe unused fonts.

        Note: When using 'new Font(...)', you need to first invoke FontUtils.loadFontFamily(String) to ensure that the font family is loaded. When FlatLaf loads a font, or when using FontUtils.getCompositeFont(String, int, int), this is done automatically.

      • install

        public static void install()
        Creates and registers the fonts for all styles.

        When using FlatLaf, consider using installLazy().

      • installBasic

        public static void installBasic()
        Creates and registers the fonts for basic styles (regular, italic and bold).

        When using FlatLaf, consider using installLazy().

      • installLight

        public static void installLight()
        Creates and registers the fonts for light styles.

        When using FlatLaf, consider using installLazy().

      • installSemiBold

        public static void installSemiBold()
        Creates and registers the fonts for semibold (medium) styles.

        When using FlatLaf, consider using installLazy().

      • installStyle

        public static boolean installStyle​(String name)
        Creates and registers the font for the given style. See STYLE_ constants.
