## Detailed Description

A widget for selecting fonts.

The Gtk::FontChooser widget lists the available fonts, styles and sizes, allowing the user to select a font. It is used in the Gtk::FontChooserDialog widget to provide a dialog box for selecting fonts.

To set the font which is initially selected, use set_font_name().

To get the selected font use get_font_name().

To change the text which is shown in the preview area, use set_preview_text().

Since gtkmm 3.2:
