glutBitmapWidth - returns the width of a bitmap character, glutBitmapLength
returns the length of a bitmap font string.
int glutBitmapWidth(void *font, int character)
int glutBitmapLength(void *font, const unsigned char *string)
- font
- Bitmap font to use. For valid values, see the glutBitmapCharacter
description.
- character
- Character to return width of (not confined to 8 bits).
- string
- Text string (8-bit characters), nul terminated.
glutBitmapWidth returns the width in pixels of a bitmap character in a supported
bitmap 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.
glutBitmapLength returns the length in pixels of a string (8-bit
characters). This length is equivalent to summing all the widths returned by
glutBitmapWidth for each character in the string.
