Text effects
« on: December 13, 2010, 10:03:08 pm »
Hello,

I'm a n00b with this library and in development in general.

I would like to create some text effects on a sf::String, for example a typewriter text effect.

Do you know how i can start?

Thank you.

Do you mean text that looks like it was written by a typewriter?  If so, you would be looking for a particular font.  I don't know of one like that off the top of my head but try googling 'free fonts' and looking at the tons that are out there.  Just make sure you check the license's that are attached to them ;)

Or do you want to make the letters appear one after the other? If that is the case, you could use a timer and display each letter after a specific time has passed.
