Fontain

Table of Contents

Fontain is a simple Ace3 addon to give you a highly configurable set of controls over your UI's font choices.

You can set a master font for your whole UI, and even override SharedMedia so that all addons that use SharedMedia will use your selected font. Additionally, you have fine-grained control over every font in your UI, with a powerful wildcard matching system.

For example, if you want to set your master font to "Calibri", but want your tooltips all in "Bazooka", you could set the font for GameTooltip as you see fit, and all font strings that match GameTooltip* will be updated, including all derivatives. While this is often already done via inheritance, it does catch a number of outlying cases, giving you very powerful control over your UI's font selections.

I've noticed this changes my oUF font as well (for my unit frames) but I can't find which section is the unit frames. I just need to make the text a bit larger. Which section/subsection includes unit frames?

That depends which font template oUF inherits. Chances are good it's inheriting "GameFontNormal" or "GameFontNormalSmall"; you'd have to pop open the code for the oUF layout that you're using to be sure.

Sorry for the problems - looks like I screwed up with the packaged libraries. I'll have a new copy posted soon.

Slash commands are /font, /fonts, and /fontain - or, just check the Interface options panel :)

Looks interesting. Been using ClearFont2 for quite some time, but it looks like that addon may be dieing. I'll give this a try tonight.
