Re: [pygame] How the get a font size

["Thiago Chaves" <shundread@xxxxxxxxx>]

You can also just violate the object by giving it an extra attribute:

f = pygame.font.Font(filename, size)
f.new_attribute = size

I'm pretty sure any OO enthusiast would applaud this method. There is
certainly nothing bad that can be said about my method. No sir. =D
