> TextStyleFontVariant = "normal" | "small-caps"

Defined in: node_modules/pixi.js/lib/scene/text/TextStyle.d.ts:160

The font variant input for text styles. Controls the capitalization and presentation of letters. Used to enable special rendering like small caps.

Example

// Create text with normal font variant
const normalText = new Text({
    text: 'Normal Text',
    style: {
        fontVariant: 'normal',
        fontSize: 24
    }
});

// Create text with small-caps variant
const smallCapsText = new Text({
    text: 'Small Caps Text',
    style: {
        fontVariant: 'small-caps',
        fontSize: 24,
        fontFamily: 'Arial'
    }
});

// Use in a TextStyle instance
const style = new TextStyle({
    fontVariant: 'small-caps',
    fontSize: 32,
    fill: 0x4a4a4a
});

// Update variant dynamically
text.style = {
    ...text.style,
    fontVariant: text.style.fontVariant === 'normal' ? 'small-caps' : 'normal'
};

Supported values:

'normal': Regular text rendering with standard capitalization
'small-caps': Renders lowercase letters as smaller versions of capital letters

Remarks

Small caps are only available if the font supports them. Not all fonts include true small caps glyphs.
