Title: Pixel width of text? [SOLVED]
Post by: RickJ on Sun 13/02/2005 19:54:10

I could have sworn that I've seen an AGS function that returns the number of pixels it takes to display a given string and font, but I'll be darned if I can find it now. Anyone know the name of this function or WITFN it is? have any clues how to find it. := Thanks...

I never thought I'd see the day that RickJ posted in the Beginners' Tech Forum. How the mighty have fallen. ;)

Yeah, I know the feeling. I'll go to great lengths to not post, just to save face. I guess I could suck it up... ::)

Well, I was too embarassed to ask in the tech forum :-[, I'm surprised you didn't send me to the old bit bucket. ;D

Besides, as Proskrito rightly points out, this is a beginners question, so I put it here. And how did I get the rank of "mighty' anyway? := That's Ok, I find it amusing as well.
