Static p5_sys::global::textAscent

pub static textAscent: TextAscentInternalType

Returns the ascent of the current font at its current size. The ascent represents the distance, in pixels, of the tallest character above the baseline.

Examples

let base = height * 0.75;
let scalar = 0.8; // Different for each font

textSize(32); // Set initial text size
let asc = textAscent() * scalar; // Calc ascent
line(0, base - asc, width, base - asc);
text('dp', 0, base); // Draw text on baseline

textSize(64); // Increase text size
asc = textAscent() * scalar; // Recalc ascent
line(40, base - asc, width, base - asc);
text('dp', 40, base); // Draw text on baseline
