# Control Object Properties

Font$ | Font for Control/Cell

## Description

Font for control/cell

This property is used to reference the font for a control/cell. It will contain (or can be set to) a string containing three comma-separated fields of the font name, size and attributes.

Example:

To set the font to Arial, 1.5 times normal size, and Bold, the format would be xxx'Font$="Arial,1.5,B".

When setting the 'Font$ property on a grid for all columns/rows ('Column=0 and 'Row=0), the system will check that the current default RowHeight is large enough to accommodate the font selected. If the default row height is too small, the system will automatically adjust the default and all existing row heights to a size large enough to accommodate the font size.

(Support for the automatic adjustment of row height was added in PxPlus 2019.)
