Font

Class for loading and manipulating character fonts.

Fonts can be loaded from a file, from memory or from a custom stream, and supports the most common types of fonts.

See the loadFromFile function for the complete list of supported formats.

Once it is loaded, a Font instance provides three types of information about the font: - Global metrics, such as the line spacing - Per-glyph metrics, such as bounding box or kerning - Pixel representation of glyphs

Functions

getGlyph Glyph getGlyph(dchar codePoint, uint characterSize, bool bold): Retrieve a glyph of the font.
getKerning int getKerning(dchar first, dchar second, uint characterSize): Get the kerning offset of two glyphs.
getLineSpacing int getLineSpacing(uint characterSize): Get the line spacing.
getTexture const(Texture) getTexture(uint characterSize): Retrieve the texture containing the loaded glyphs of a certain size.
loadFromFile bool loadFromFile(string filename): Load the font from a file.
loadFromMemory bool loadFromMemory(const(void)[] data): Load the font from a file in memory.
