Modules

Re-exported ab_glyph types.

Macros

Macro to delegate builder methods to an inner glyph_brush::GlyphBrushBuilder

Structs

Default extra field type. Non-layout data for vertex generation.

Id for a font.

Object allowing glyph drawing, containing cache state. Manages glyph positioning cacheing, glyph draw caching & efficient GPU texture cache updating.

Cut down version of a GlyphBrush that can calculate pixel bounds, but is unable to actually render anything.

Data used to generate vertex information for a single glyph

A rectangle, with top-left corner at min, and bottom-right corner at max.

An object that contains all the info to render a varied section of text. That is one including many parts with differing fonts/scales/colors bowing to a single layout.

A positioned glyph with info relating to the SectionText from which it was derived.

Text to layout together using a font & scale.

SectionText + extra.

Enums

Actions that should be taken after processing queue data

Built-in linebreaking logic.

Describes horizontal alignment preference for positioning & bounds.

Built-in GlyphPositioner implementations.

Indicator that a character is a line break, soft or hard. Includes the offset (byte-index) position.

Describes vertical alignment preference for positioning & bounds. Currently a placeholder for future functionality.

Traits

Common glyph layout logic.

Logic to calculate glyph positioning using Font, SectionGeometry and SectionText.

Producer of a LineBreak iterator. Used to allow to the Layout to be line break aware in a generic way.

Type Definitions

A “practically collision free” Section hasher

SectionGlyph iterator.
