# TTF\_RenderText\_Solid\_Wrapped(3)

Render word-wrapped UTF-8 text at fast quality to a new 8-bit surface.

## NAME

TTF\_RenderText\_Solid\_Wrapped - Render word-wrapped UTF-8 text at fast quality to a new 8-bit surface.

## HEADER FILE

Defined in SDL3\_ttf/SDL\_ttf.h

## SYNOPSIS

```
#include "SDL3_ttf/SDL_ttf.h"
```

**SDL\_Surface \* TTF\_RenderText\_Solid\_Wrapped(TTF\_Font \*font, const char \*text, size\_t length, SDL\_Color fg, int wrapLength);**

## DESCRIPTION

This function will allocate a new 8-bit, palettized surface. The surface's 0 pixel will be the colorkey, giving a transparent background. The 1 pixel will be set to the text color.

Text is wrapped to multiple lines on line endings and on word boundaries if it extends beyond **wrapLength** in pixels.

If wrapLength is 0, this function will only wrap on newline characters.

You can render at other quality levels with

**TTF\_RenderText\_Shaded\_Wrapped** ,

**TTF\_RenderText\_Blended\_Wrapped** , and

**TTF\_RenderText\_LCD\_Wrapped** .

## FUNCTION PARAMETERS

- *font*

  the font to render with.

- *text*

  text to render, in UTF-8 encoding.

- *length*

  the length of the text, in bytes, or 0 for null terminated text.

- *fg*

  the foreground color for the text.

- *wrapLength*

  the maximum width of the text surface or 0 to wrap on newline characters.

## RETURN VALUE

Returns a new 8-bit, palettized surface, or NULL if there was an error.

## THREAD SAFETY

This function should be called on the thread that created the font.

## AVAILABILITY

This function is available since SDL\_ttf 3.0.0.
