Font size when text used into 'draw

 [1/6] from: christophe:coussement:mil:be at: 7-Jan-2002 15:53


Hi Fellow REBOLians: I didn't use draw dialect a lot until now, and I have this little problem: how can I determine the size (and other properties) of the text font when used into a 'draw block ? None of those seems to work :
>> view layout [box effect [draw [pen red text "hello" 20x20 font [size:
50]]]]
>> view layout [box effect [draw [pen red font [size: 50] text "hello"
20x20]]] Thanks for helping me, and Happy New Year to all ;-)) ==christophe

Hello, I would use something like: my-font: make face/font [ size: 50 ] view layout [box 300x100 effect [draw [pen red font my-font text "Hello" 20x20]]]

hi Christophe, The Easy-Draw example gives you a start on things. Here's a snippet: do [ italic-font: make face/font [ size: 15 style: [italic bold] name: font-serif ] ] box 200x200 gold effect [ draw [ pen blue text 20x20 "Default Font" font italic-font pen black text 20x60 "Bold Times Italic Font" ] ] --Gregg
