# KFontComboBox Class Reference

`from PyKDE4.kdeui import *`

Inherits: KComboBox → QComboBox → QWidget → QObject

## Detailed Description

A lightweight font selection widget.

A combobox to select the font from. Lightweight counterpart to KFontChooser, for situations where only the font family should be selected, while the font style and size are handled by other means. Like in KFontChooser, this widget will show the font previews in the unrolled dropdown list.

Note:
  The class is similar to QFontComboBox, but more tightly integrated with KDE desktop. Use it instead of QFontComboBox by default in KDE code.
