Method Details

getFontSet

public FontSet getFontSet(String lafName,
                          UIDefaults table)
Looks up and returns a set of fonts that will be used by a Look&Feel to set the default fonts for its components.

This method is invoked during the L&F component initialization. And the invoker hands over the UIDefaults object used to define the component settings. Hence, the UIDefaults object may be used to look up a font as initialized by a super Look&Feel. For example the JGoodies Windows L&F could use the defaults set by the super L&F, the Sun Windows L&F.

Parameters:
lafName - the name of the Look&Feel that requests the fonts
table - the UIDefaults table that can be used to look up fonts of a super L&F
Returns:
a set of fonts used as default for the component.
