Hi All,
I've ran into a few snags with texts and I'm trying to understand nanogui's implemsntation.
If for instance I have a text "nanogui is the best" and I want to display each phase ("nanogui" , "is" , etc.) with a different size and color it appears that I'll have to know more details of the font used to do this.
It appears that I'll have to know (calculate, maybe) the number of pixels and display each separately using GrText(). That implies fixed sized fonts.What about proportional fonts?
Is this the way it is done? Do I understand this correctly?
If I want to center this text in a window, is this approach used to do this as well?
Much Thanks,
Robbie,
