[Solved] Check for sf::Text::Style

[DasOhmoff San]

Hi,

I really want to know how to check for the Style of Text's.
This is not working:

if(sf_text.getStyle() == sf::Text::Bold)

I wanted to switch between bold, italic and underlined but I think there is a better way to do that than I do.
I am doing it like this:

//****Input was b, to switch Bold on or of****//

if(/*sf_text.getStyle() == sf::Text::Bold*/) //Bold -> change to regular
{
        sf_text.setStyle(sf::Text::Regular);
}
else if(/*sf_text.getStyle() == sf::Text::Bold | sf::Text::Italic*/) //Bold & italic -> only italic
{
        sf_text.setStyle(sf::Text::Italic);
}
else if(/*sf_text.getStyle() == sf::Text::Bold | sf::Text::Underlined*/) //Bold & underlined-> only underlined
{
        sf_text.setStyle(sf::Text::Underlined);
}
//Bold, italic & underlined -> only underlined and italic
else if(/*sf_text.getStyle() == sf::Text::Bold |  sf::Text::Italic | sf::Text::Underlined*/)
{
        sf_text.setStyle(sf::Text::Italic | sf::Text::Underlined);
}
 

As you can see this can't be the best way, what is the best way?

Sry for my bad english.

text.setStyle(text.getStyle() & ~sf::Text::Bold); // removes bold style

[DasOhmoff San]

text.setStyle(text.getStyle() & ~sf::Text::Bold); // removes bold style

THANKS A LOT!

[DasOhmoff San]

text.setStyle(text.getStyle() & ~sf::Text::Bold); // removes bold style

As I said already, thanks a lot, but how do I check the Status of the Style?

(text.getStyle() == sf::Text::Bold)

And if the Style got bold, italic and underlined, how to check if one of the Style options is for example bold?

if (text.getStyle() & sf::Text::Bold == sf::Text::Bold)
 

That will return true if the style contains bold (Even if it is mixed with other styles).

Thanks!
This really works for sf::Text::Bold, but doesn't for the other Styles.
However I understood how this is working! Thanks a lot!

It also works for the other styles, of course you have to adapt the sf::Text::Bold on both sides.

Oops I though [cpp] was a tag :S In any case, these are bitwise operators and they are very cool for things like this.

You should probably read up a little about them before doing any serious work though, they can be a little confusing at times.
