[[XML/Font|Font]] is a special element that allows [[XML/FontString|FontString]] properties to be more easily defined for inheriting. The [[XML/Font|Font]] element can be used in a [[XML/Ui]] element.

== Inheritance ==
Inherited by: [[XML/FontString|FontString]], Inherits: none, Defined in: [[XML/Ui|Ui]]

== Elements ==
* [[XML/Value|FontHeight]]
* [[XML/Color|Color]]
* [[XML/Shadow|Shadow]]

== Attributes ==
* name (string)
* inherits (string)
* virtual (bool) - Default is 'false'.
* font (string)
* spacing (float) - Default is '0'.
* outline ([[XML/OUTLINE|OUTLINE]]) - Default is 'NONE'.
* monochrome (bool) - Default is 'false'.
* justifyV ([[XML/JUSTIFYV|JUSTIFYV]]) - Default is 'MIDDLE'.
* justifyH ([[XML/JUSTIFYH|JUSTIFYH]]) - Default is 'CENTER'.
* height (int) - font height. is inline alternative to <FontHeight>

== Summary ==
Font is one of the few types that can be virtually inherited by more than one type. Fonts can inherit other Fonts and FontStrings can inherit Fonts. The primary purpose of Font is to avoid having to create virtual FontStrings which are expensive since they are fully renderable elements.

=== Example ===
<[[XML/Ui|Ui]] xmlns="http://www.blizzard.com/wow/ui/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<[[XML/Font|Font]] name="MyFont" font="myfont.ttf" virtual="true">
<FontHeight>
<AbsValue val="12"/>
</FontHeight>
</Font>
<Frame name="MyFrame">
<Size x="200" y="200"/>
<Layers>
<Layer>
<FontString text="Bob" inherits="MyFont">
<Size x="100" y="100"/>
<Anchors>
<Anchor point="TOP"/>
</Anchors>
</Texture>
</Layer>
</Layers>
</Frame>
</Ui>

This example creates a Font that is used by a FontString. Demonstrates using Font to simplify use of FontString.

=== Notes ===
* height attribute added 6.1.0
