macOS wxFontPicker not returning bold/italic/underline/etc... (Issue #26017)
Daniel Kulp
dkulp created an issue (wxWidgets/wxWidgets#26017)Bug description:
With macOS 26 (not sure about other versions), the wxFontPicker is not picking up ANY of the other attributes other than base font name and size. Bold, Italic, Underline, etc... are not coming through.
Expected vs observed behaviour:
Expect that the font that is picked is actually returned and is queryable with the properties the user selected.
To Reproduce:
This is easy to reproduce in the "widgets" sample. Open the widgets same, select the FontPicker, set the font to something like "Arial Bold 24" and all that is returned is just "Arial 24".
NOTE: a possible separate bug: in the font picker that pops up, if you click on the button to enable the Typographical panel, the widgets app completely crashes.
Platform and version information
- wxWidgets version you use: close to latest master
- wxWidgets port wxOSX
- OS macOS 26

@csomor Might I ask for your help again here?

Just to make sure we are talking about the same thing:
- in the widgets sample you click on the left in the pickers section
- take the font picker and then click on the button
- then you select
- font Arial
- variant Bold and
- size 24 ?
the log information currently does not log the numeric weight at al, nor the style, so it should be logged, with something like
wxLogMessage("The font changed to '%s' with size %d, style %s, weight %d !",
event.GetFont().GetFaceName(), event.GetFont().GetPointSize(),
event.GetFont().GetStyle() == wxFONTSTYLE_NORMAL ? "regular" : "italic",
event.GetFont().GetNumericWeight());
Now on Tahoe the selection of the variant always jumps back to Standard, I'll try to find out what events we must support here... I do not get a crash with the typography panel, but as we try to get a modal behavior this does not fit in right now.

Yes, I know, under Tahoe the selection always jumps back, it is not persistent, eg, select the bold variant, change the font size, the variant jumps back to standard, I assume it is now depending on some external "state" which we must provide, that gets changed and queried ...

csomor left a comment (wxWidgets/wxWidgets#26017)the panelConvertFont method of the Font Panel does not convert the font correctly, missing weight and style on many fonts, this also happens when I directly log the NSFont

dkulp left a comment (wxWidgets/wxWidgets#26017)Definitely works much better. Interesting note: italics wasn't working for me, but that turns out that xLights has never supported italics fonts. No one has ever reported it. :)
