Title: Write Number on the Screen
Post by: Mikea on February 01, 2009, 09:59:19 pm

I'd like to write numbers on screen, like time and/or scores. How can I do that if sf::String only allows text.. ?

use a string output stream?
that would be my guess.

thank you :) although to update time this method only appends the text. I tryied to flush the stream but it keeps appending the numbers... example:

Score 1

Update

Score 12 instead of Score 2

Tu remove the contents of a stringstream you have to call its str("") function, not clear() or flush().
