Text Style Record

Text style records are used for communicating character attribute information between the application and several TextEdit routines, such as TEContinuousStyle and TEReplaceStyle. They carry the same information as the style element records in the style table, but without the reference count, line height, and font ascent.

The TextStyle data type defines a text style record.

TYPE  TextStyle = 
      RECORD
         tsFont:  Integer;    {font family number}
         tsFace:  Style;      {character style}
         tsSize:  Integer;    {size in points}
         tsColor: RGBColor;   {absolute RGB color}
      END;

TextStylePtr = ^TextStyle;
TextStyleHandle = ^TextStylePtr;
