Used with the textStyle property to indicate boldface text.

Examples:

set the textStyle of button "Label" to bold
if the textStyle of word 3 of field "Info" is bold then go card 1


Use the bold keyword to emphasise text by presenting it in boldface.

You can boldface an object (which boldfaces all the text displayed by the object) or a chunk in a field or button.

To add boldfacing to an object without removing other styles (such as italic), add the bold keyword to the end of the textStyle. The following example adds bold to the styles of a button:

 if the textStyle of button 1 is empty then
    set the textStyle of button 1 to bold
 else
    set the textStyle of button 1 to (the textStyle of button 1) & comma & "bold"
 end if
