custom text

[andrewkoro105]

I'm trying to create custom text and I can't get origin or bearing for the character.

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(200, 200), "SFML works!");
    sf::Sprite sprite, sprite1;


    sf::Font font;
    font.loadFromFile("segoeui.ttf");
    sf::Glyph glyph0 = font.getGlyph('a', 20, false);
    sf::Glyph glyph1 = font.getGlyph('F', 20, false);

    sprite.setTexture(font.getTexture(20));
    sprite.setTextureRect(glyph0.textureRect);
    sprite.setPosition(0, 20);

    sprite1.setTexture(font.getTexture(20));
    sprite1.setTextureRect(glyph1.textureRect);
    sprite1.setPosition(glyph1.advance, 20);

    while (window.isOpen())
    {
        sf::Event event;
        while (window.pollEvent(event))
        {
            if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                window.close();
        }

        window.clear();
        window.draw(sprite);
        window.draw(sprite1);
        window.display();
    }

    return 0;
}

Might want to be a bit more specific what you want to achieve, "can't get origin or bearing" doesn't really mean much without providing additional context.

I need to find bearing

[eXpl0it3r]

The glphy returns a bounding rectangle that's relative to the baseline, so glyph.bounds.left should give you the bearingX and glyph.bounds.top should give you the bearingY.
The origin would then be (0, 0).

Note this is all in local coordinates.
