Member Function Documentation

virtual int GLTEXT_CALL gltext::Font::getAscent (    )  [pure virtual]

Gets the ascent of this font. This is the distance from the baseline to the top of the tallest glyph of this font.

virtual int GLTEXT_CALL gltext::Font::getDescent (    )  [pure virtual]

Gets the descent of this font. This is the distance from the baseline to the bottom of the glyph that descends the most from the baseline.

virtual int GLTEXT_CALL gltext::Font::getDPI (    )  [pure virtual]

Returns the DPI value passed to OpenFont() when this font was created.

virtual Glyph* GLTEXT_CALL gltext::Font::getGlyph (  unsigned char    c )  [pure virtual]

Returns the glyph object associated with the character c in the font.

virtual int GLTEXT_CALL gltext::Font::getKerning (  unsigned char    l, unsigned char    r )  [pure virtual]

Returns the kerning distance between character c1 and character c2. The kerning distance is added to the previous character's advance distance.

virtual int GLTEXT_CALL gltext::Font::getLineGap (    )  [pure virtual]

Gets the distance that must be placed between two lines of text. Thus the baseline to baseline distance can be computed as ascent + descent + linegap.
