Problem You need to display some text with a different font style (for example displayed in bold)
Solution You retrieve the "normal" font attributes, change the attributes you need and create a new FXFont object which subsequently can be used with the setFont() function of most widgets.
FXFontDesc fontdesc;
/// Get the font description,in this case, from the normal font.
getApp()->getNormalFont()->getFontDesc(fontdesc );
/// Change some of the attributes. Here we change the font weight, making it bolder.
fontdesc.weight+=200;
/// Based on the font description we create a new font object.
FXFont * thickfont = new FXFont(getApp(),fontdesc);
/// Do whatever you want with this font object
widget->setFont(thickfont);
/// Just don't forget to delete it when you're done with it.
delete thickfont;
