What is a correct way to specify font style (e.g. Italic)?

[arudoy]

I'm adding text to document like this

var style = new TextStyle("Italic");
style.TrueType = FontFlags.Italic;

doc.Entities.Add(new TextEntity
{
  InsertPoint = new XYZ(10, 10, 0),
  Value = "This supposed to be italic",
  Color = new Color(255, 0, 0),
  Height = 10,
  Style = style
});

The text is displayed, but without italic effect

Hi @arudoy,

If you want to set the text with the Italic font you can use:

style.Filename = "italic.shx";

If you want only to set the Italic style without changing the font you have to change to ObliqueAngle property in the TextEntity.

Hope this helps!

@DomCR , thank you for the fast reply!
ObliqueAngle actually did the trick
