gfx_text Build Status crates.io

Library for drawing text for gfx-rs graphics API. Uses freetype-rs underneath.

Usage

Basic usage:

// Initialize text renderer.
let mut text = gfx_text::new(factory).build().unwrap();

// In render loop:

// Draw some text 10 pixels down and right from the top left screen corner.
text.draw(
    "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog",  // Text to draw
    [10, 10],                                       // Position
    [0.65, 0.16, 0.16, 1.0],                        // Text color
);

// Render the final batch.
text.draw_end(&mut stream);

See API documentation for overview of all available methods.
