The previous example script displays a text editor along with a button for changing the editor font. The editors existing font is used as initial font in the dialog. The editor itself is supplied as an argument to the qgetfontdialog command to ensure that the font dialog is positioned on top of the editor. Note that the button font is set as well, thus any widget can have its font set using the qsetfontdialog command.
