TextStyle for MoxyDraw

new:

Creates a new text style and SETS it current.

textstyle name:

Sets the text style name to create.

font name:

Sets the font name.

There are 2 types of font used by AutoCAD:

The first one is TrueType (with the little TT in front of the name) which is also used by Windows.

The other is shape font (the one with extension .shx after the name).

When calling a TrueType font (like arial, tahoma, time new roman) any extension must be omitted. In the other hand, when calling a shape font, you need to add the extension ".shx" like for romans.shx, iso.shx and txt.shx for example.

Generally, if a TrueType is called, you can set it to bold or italic or both but the vertical option will not be available. If you call a shape file you won't be able to put it in bold or italic but you'll have the option to use it vertically.

text height:

Optional. Sets the text height. If omitted, it will be set to 0. It's a good practice to let it at 0.

bold italic:

Optional. Sets if text is bold and/or italic IF chosen font permits. If omitted, it will be set to 0. Here are the available options:

0 = None

1 = Bold

2 = Italic

3 = Bold AND Italic

effect:

Optional. Sets effect option IF chosen font permits. If omitted, it will be set to 0. Here are the available options:

0 = None

width factor:
