Struct gfx_glyph::GlyphBrush

pub struct GlyphBrush<'a, R: Resources, F: Factory<R>> { /* fields omitted */ }

Object allowing glyph drawing, containing cache state. Manages glyph positioning cacheing, glyph draw caching & efficient GPU texture cache updating and re-sizing on demand.

Build using a GlyphBrushBuilder.

Example

extern crate gfx_glyph;
use gfx_glyph::Section;


let section = Section {
    text: "Hello gfx_glyph",
    ..Section::default()
};

glyph_brush.queue(section);
glyph_brush.queue(some_other_section);

glyph_brush.draw_queued(&mut gfx_encoder, &gfx_color, &gfx_depth).unwrap();

Methods

impl<'font, R: Resources, F: Factory<R>> GlyphBrush<'font, R, F>

fn pixel_bounds_custom_layout<'a, S, L>(
    &mut self,
    section: S,
    custom_layout: &L
) -> Option<Rect<i32>> where
    L: GlyphPositioner + Hash,
    S: Into<Cow<'a, VariedSection<'a>>>, 

Returns the pixel bounding box for the input section using a custom layout. The box is a conservative whole number pixel rectangle that can contain the section.

If the section is empty or would result in no drawn glyphs will return None

fn pixel_bounds<'a, S>(&mut self, section: S) -> Option<Rect<i32>> where
    S: Into<Cow<'a, VariedSection<'a>>>, 

Returns the pixel bounding box for the input section. The box is a conservative whole number pixel rectangle that can contain the section.

If the section is empty or would result in no drawn glyphs will return None

fn queue_custom_layout<'a, S, G>(&mut self, section: S, custom_layout: &G) where
    G: GlyphPositioner,
    S: Into<Cow<'a, VariedSection<'a>>>, 

Queues a section/layout to be drawn by the next call of draw_queued. Can be called multiple times to queue multiple sections for drawing.

Used to provide custom GlyphPositioner logic, if using built-in Layout simply use queue

fn queue<'a, S>(&mut self, section: S) where
    S: Into<Cow<'a, VariedSection<'a>>>, 

Queues a section/layout to be drawn by the next call of draw_queued. Can be called multiple times to queue multiple sections for drawing.

fn draw_queued<C, T, D>(
    &mut self,
    encoder: &mut Encoder<R, C>,
    target: &RenderTargetView<R, T>,
    depth_target: &DepthStencilView<R, D>
) -> Result<(), String> where
    C: CommandBuffer<R>,
    T: RenderFormat,
    D: DepthFormat, 

Draws all queued sections onto a render target, applying a position transform (e.g. a projection). See queue.

fn draw_queued_with_transform<C, T, D>(
    &mut self,
    transform: [[f32; 4]; 4],
    encoder: &mut Encoder<R, C>,
    target: &RenderTargetView<R, T>,
    depth_target: &DepthStencilView<R, D>
) -> Result<(), String> where
    C: CommandBuffer<R>,
    T: RenderFormat,
    D: DepthFormat, 

Draws all queued sections onto a render target, applying a position transform (e.g. a projection). See queue.

fn fonts(&self) -> &HashMap<FontId, Font<'font>>

Returns FontId -> Font map of available fonts.
