<!-- ##### SECTION Title ##### -->
GtkFontSelection
<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
a widget for selecting fonts.
<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
The #GtkFontSelection widget lists the available fonts, styles and sizes,
allowing the user to select a font.
It is used in the #GtkFontSelectionDialog widget to provide a dialog box for
selecting fonts.
</para>
<para>
To set the font which is initially selected, use
gtk_font_selection_set_font_name().
</para>
<para>
To get the selected font use gtk_font_selection_get_font()
or gtk_font_selection_get_font_name().
</para>
<para>
To change the text which is shown in the preview area, use
gtk_font_selection_set_preview_text().
</para>
<para>
Filters can be used to limit the fonts shown. There are 2 filters in the
#GtkFontSelection - a base filter and a user filter. The base filter
can not be changed by the user, so this can be used when the user must choose
from the restricted set of fonts (e.g. for a terminal-type application you may
want to force the user to select a fixed-width font). The user filter can be
changed or reset by the user, by using the 'Reset Filter' button or changing
the options on the 'Filter' page of the widget.
