How to set font/size for label widget in tizen native app

I have a tizen native app. I have used the following (after the typical create_basic_gui code):


/* peoConformant previously set for window object */
peoBox = elm_box_add(peoConformant);
object_content_set(peoConformant);
evas_object_show(peoBox);

peoLabel = elm_label_add(peoBox);
elm_object_text_set(peoLabel, "Label Text");
elm_box_pack_start(peoBox, peoLabel);

elm_object_show(peoBox);

Now I would like to change the font and the font size for the label. I know that I can add html code to the label text that would do this. But is there a way through native API calls? I have tried evas_object_text_get(...) and evas_object_text_set(...) but they don't appear to do anything.

Any and all help appreciated.

TIA

As you said, it's best to use markup to change the font size. There is no API to directly set the font size of elm_label.

elm_object_text_set(label, "<font=Sans><font_size=20>hello world</font_size></font>");

And to get/set the text of elm_label, use elm_object_text_get/set API.

const char* str = elm_object_text_get(label);
elm_object_text_set(label, "hello world");
