How to write text on screen - SFML2

[prchakal]

Hi,

When i use SFML 1.6, i use the following code to write text to screen:

Code: [Select]


sf::String textBullets( "Bullets: " + StringConverter::toString(GameObjects::bullets->size()) );
textBullets.SetPosition(5, 25);
textBullets.SetSize(13);

App.Draw(textBullets);


But i get error when use SFML2, the methods SetPosition doesnt exists and Add.Draw doesnt work with sf::String.

What i need do?

And how to use custom fonts?

its been renamed, all you need to change is,

sf::String to sf::Text,


and change .SetSize to .SetCharacterSize,
and it should work as expected

And aboout custom fonts?

Code: [Select]


sf::Font    font;
sf::Text    text;
if(!font.LoadFromFile("verdana.ttf")){
    //error
}
text.SetFont(font);
