How do I change the font of a RichText?
[lua]
local MenuPanel = vgui.Create( "DFrame" )
MenuPanel:SetSize( ScrW()*0.75, ScrH()*0.75 )
MenuPanel:Center()
MenuPanel:SetTitle( "" )
MenuPanel:SetVisible( false )
MenuPanel:SetDraggable( true )
MenuPanel:ShowCloseButton( true )
MenuPanel:SetDeleteOnClose( false )
MenuPanel:MakePopup()
MenuPanel.OnClose = function()
local Panel = vgui.Create( "DPanel", MenuPanel )
Panel:SetSize( MenuPanel:GetWide()-10*2, MenuPanel:GetTall()-35*2 )
Panel:SetPos( 5, 30 )
Panel.Paint = function()
surface.SetDrawColor( 255, 255, 255, 125 )
surface.DrawRect( 0, 0, Panel:GetWide(), Panel:GetTall() )
end
local RText = vgui.Create( "RichText" , Panel )
RText:SetPos( 0, 0 )
RText:SetSize(Panel:GetWide()-5, Panel:GetTall() - 35)
RText.Paint = function()
surface.SetDrawColor( 255, 255, 255, 125 )
surface.DrawRect( 0, 0, RText:GetWide()-20, RText:GetTall() )
surface.SetDrawColor( 125, 125, 125, 125 )
surface.DrawRect( RText:GetWide()-20, 0, 20, RText:GetTall() )
end
[/lua]
Have you tried using RText:SetFont?
[lua]
RText:SetFont("ChatFont")
[/lua]
[code]
[ERROR] lua/autorun/custompm.lua:209: attempt to call method 'SetFont' (a nil value)
[/code]
Doesn't appear to be possible from everything I've tried.

:/ thought that might be the case.
I've been researching on this a while ago. It turns out nothing works, not even SetInternalFont.
You'd be better off writing your own replacement with fonts and stuff instead of trying to use RichText.

Surely there must be a work around, maybe manually creating each letter within the paint function?
