displayed using a CTextureFont. To avoid creating a new CTextureFont for each character we use a CFontManager which provides the textures and manages CTextureFont instances in memory. A font manager is able to compute an entire string, to do that it fills a CComputedString. A CComputedString contains a list of primitive blocks(CPrimitiveBlock) and materials(CMaterial). It can then render the string through a driver(IDriver). +<p> +<a name="font_texture_font"><h3>CTextureFont</h3></a> + +<p> +A CTextureFont object is a texture representing a unicode character. It inherits ITexture, and therefore CBitmap. The texture bitmap is built by calling generate() which fills in the same time useful fields, as : +<p> +<ul> +<li>GlyphIndex : number of the character in the this font<li>Top : Distance between origin and top of the texture<li>Left : Distance between origin and left of the texture<li>AdvX : Advance to the next caracter</ul> +Rq : all these values are given by the font generator. About bitmap dimensions : if width or height are not powers of 2 there are set to the next power of 2. The true dimensions are still availables in the CTextureFont level. +<p> +<a name="font_font_manager"><h3>CFontManager</h3></a> + +<p> +The font manager manages CTextureFont pointers through a list of CSmartPtr. When the user requires the texture font representing a character, it generates and stores this pointer in the list. If this character has already been generated, and lies in the list, it increments its reference count and return the pointer. +<p> +Rq : a character is defined by<ul> +<li>a font name<li>a unicode char<li>a font size</ul> +The maximum memory used by the list of generated font textures in the font manager can be, and SHOULD be, set by the user after manager creation. Indeed the default value is 0. When the maximum memory is reached, the manager delete the useless characters until memory ammount is acceptable. +<p> +<a name="font_font_generator"><h3>CFontGenerator</h3></a> + +<p> +The font generator is the interface between Nel and FreeType. One generator is used for one font. Then, providing a unicode char and a size, the generator can return a generated bitmap containing the char bitmap. +<p> +<a name="font_display_decriptor"><h3>CDisplayDescriptor</h3></a> + +<p> +A CDisplayDescriptor is a structure used to store screen parameters :<ul> +<li>screen width<li>screen height<li>font ratio</ul> +<a name="font_computed_string"><h3>CComputedString</h3></a> + +<p> +Rendering parameters +<p> +The coordinates are screen-relatives :<ul> +<li>0,0 is the bottom-left corner<li>1,1 is the top-right corner</ul> +The scale parameters have the default value 1. The rotation angle is set to 0 by default. +<p> +A string as a "hot spot" which indicates its relative display origin. By default this value is LeftBottom. The others are :<ul> +<li>LeftMiddle <li>LeftTop<li>MiddleBottom <li>MiddleMiddle <li>MiddleTop <li>RightBottom <li>RightMiddle<li>RightTop</ul> +<div align="center"> +<img src="font.jpg" alt="font.jpg"> +</div> + +<p> +<a name="font_example"><h3>Example</h3></a> + +<p> +Here is an example generating and rendering a string : +<p> +<div class="fragment"><pre><font class="comment">// Font manager</font> +CFontManager fontManager; +fontManager.setMaxMemory(2000000); + +<font class="comment">// Font generator</font> +CFontGenerator fontGenerator(<font class="stringliteral">"c:/winnt/fonts/arialuni.ttf"</font>); + +<font class="comment">// Screen parameters</font> +CDisplayDescriptor displayDesc; +displayDesc.ResX = 800; +displayDesc.ResY = 600; + +<font class="comment">// Compute string</font> +CComputedString cptedString; +fontManager.computeString (<font class="stringliteral">"Nevrax"</font>,&fontGenerator,CRGBA(255,255,255),100,displayDesc,cptedString); + +<font class="comment">//...here the driver is initialized...</font> + +<font class="comment">// render string</font> +cptedString.render2D (driver, 0.5, 0.7); +</pre></div> +<p> + + +<!-- footer --> +<BR><FONT Size=+5> </FONT> +</TD> +<TD WIDTH=15><IMG SRC=http://www.nevrax.org/inc/img/pixel.gif WIDTH=15 HEIGHT=15 BORDER=0 ALT=""></TD> +</TR> +</TABLE> +</BODY> +</HTML> |
