Usage
-
#include <allegro5/allegro_font.h> void al_get_text_dimensions(const ALLEGRO_FONT *f, char const *text, int *bbx, int *bby, int *bbw, int *bbh)
Overview
Sometimes, the al_get_text_width(3alleg5) and al_get_font_line_height(3alleg5) functions are not enough for exact text placement, so this function returns some additional information.
Returned variables (all in pixels):
•
|
x, y - Offset to upper left corner of bounding box. |
|---|---|
•
|
w, h - Dimensions of bounding box. |
Note that glyphs may go to the left and upwards of the X, in which case x and y will have negative values.
Releases
6 releases since Debian 8 (Jessie); the text changed 5 times.
