# textout\_right\_ex(3alleg)

Writes a right aligned string on a bitmap. Allegro game programming library.

## NAME

textout\_right\_ex - Writes a right aligned string on a bitmap. Allegro game programming library.

## SYNOPSIS

**#include \<allegro.h\>**

**void textout\_right\_ex(BITMAP \*bmp, const FONT \*f, const char \*s,** **int x, int y, int color, int bg);**

## DESCRIPTION

Like textout\_ex(), but interprets the x coordinate as the right rather than the left edge of the string. Example:

```
   textout_right_ex(screen, font, "Look at this color!",
                    SCREEN_W - 10, 10, my_yellow, -1);
```
