NAME
glutStrokeWidth returns the width of a stroke character, glutStrokeLength returns the length of a stroke font string.
SYNTAX
int glutStrokeWidth(void *font, int character); int glutStrokeLength(void *font, const unsigned char *string);
ARGUMENTS
- font
-
Stroke font to use. For valid values, see the glutStrokeWidth description.
- character
-
Character to return width of (not confined to 8 bits).
- string
-
Text string (8-bit characters), nul terminated.
DESCRIPTION
glutStrokeWidth returns the width in modeling units of a stroke character in a supported stroke font. While the width of characters in a font may vary (though fixed width fonts do not vary), the maximum height characteristics of a particular font are fixed.
glutStrokeLength returns the length in modeling units of a string (8-bit characters). This length is equivalent to summing all the widths returned by glutStrokeWidth for each character in the string.
