Character/string width in pixels

[dabo]

Hi, is there a way to get the width of a character or a string in pixels? like if there were functions like this:

Code: [Select]

int i;
i = widthInPixels("a");
i = widthInPixels("SFML is great!");

I know you would need to take font size etc. into consideration too but still.

You can maybe simply use the GetRect function ?
