GetFontHeight - DrawFontWrap question


GetFontHeight - DrawFontWrap question

Postby yucani » Mar 18, 2008 @ 8:29pm

Is it possible to find out the height and width of a text drawn by DrawFontWrap on a screen? If yes, wich font is used to calculate?

after creating the font , i run following code:

char dst[89], src[89];
ulong w,h;
estrcpy(src,"alles wird gut, und noch viel besser");
font.PrepareFontWrap(dst, src, 100);
h=font.GetFontHeight(src);
w=font.GetFontWidth(src);

the results:
alles wird gut, und
noch viel besser
w=167
h=12

so the GetFontWidth ignores the wrap, but after counting the CR in the dest string one is able to find out the real hight.
Does i understand the procedure correct?
