Struct Text 

pub struct Text<'a, C> { /* private fields */ }

A drawable text string with configurable positioning and styling.

Implements the Drawable trait from embedded-graphics, allowing it to be rendered on any DrawTarget.

Fields (Internal)

• text: String to render
• position: Position for the anchor point
• font: Font to use for rendering
• color: Pixel color for the text
• anchor: Which point of the text bounds the position refers to
• tracking: Extra pixel spacing between characters

Examples

use embedded_graphics::geometry::Point;
use embedded_graphics_profont::{Text, Anchor, WithAnchor};

// Simple left-aligned text
let text = Text::new("Hello", Point::new(0, 0), &font, Rgb565::WHITE);
target.draw(&text)?;

// Centered text with letter spacing
let text = Text::new("Spaced", Point::new(64, 32), &font, color)
    .with_anchor(Anchor::MiddleCenter)
    .with_tracking(2);
target.draw(&text)?;

Implementations

impl<'a, C> Text<'a, C>

where C: PixelColor,

pub fn new(text: &'a str, position: Point, font: &'a Font, color: C) -> Self

Create a new text drawable.

The text will be positioned at the given point using the default TopLeft anchor. Use with_anchor() to change the anchor point.

Arguments

• text - String to render
• position - Position of the anchor point
• font - Font to use
• color - Pixel color for the text

pub fn with_tracking(self, tracking: i32) -> Self

Set the spacing between characters in pixels.

Arguments

• tracking - Extra pixels to add between characters (can be negative)

Examples

let text = Text::new("Hello", Point::new(0, 0), &font, color)
    .with_tracking(2);  // 2 pixels between each character
