Detailed Description

A Pre-formatted piece of text, which may contain multiple fonts and colours.

A TextLayout is created from an AttributedString, and once created can be quickly drawn into a Graphics context.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

TextLayout() [1/3]

TextLayout::TextLayout

(

)

Creates an empty layout.

Having created a TextLayout, you can populate it using createLayout() or createLayoutWithBalancedLineLengths().

TextLayout() [2/3]

TextLayout::TextLayout

(

const TextLayout &

)

TextLayout() [3/3]

TextLayout::TextLayout ( TextLayout && )

noexcept

~TextLayout()

TextLayout::~TextLayout

(

)

Destructor.

operator=() [2/2]

TextLayout & TextLayout::operator= ( TextLayout && )

noexcept

createLayout() [1/2]

void TextLayout::createLayout	(	const AttributedString &	,
		float	maxWidth )

Creates a layout from the given attributed string.

This will replace any data that is currently stored in the layout.

createLayout() [2/2]

void TextLayout::createLayout	(	const AttributedString &	,
		float	maxWidth,
		float	maxHeight )

Creates a layout from the given attributed string, given some size constraints.

This will replace any data that is currently stored in the layout.

createLayoutWithBalancedLineLengths() [1/2]

void TextLayout::createLayoutWithBalancedLineLengths	(	const AttributedString &	,
		float	maxWidth )

Creates a layout, attempting to choose a width which results in lines of a similar length.

This will be slower than the normal createLayout method, but produces a tidier result.

createLayoutWithBalancedLineLengths() [2/2]

void TextLayout::createLayoutWithBalancedLineLengths	(	const AttributedString &	,
		float	maxWidth,
		float	maxHeight )

Creates a layout, attempting to choose a width which results in lines of a similar length.

This will be slower than the normal createLayout method, but produces a tidier result.

draw()

void TextLayout::draw	(	Graphics &	,
		Rectangle< float >	area ) const

Draws the layout within the specified area.

The position of the text within the rectangle is controlled by the justification flags set in the original AttributedString that was used to create this layout.

getWidth()

float TextLayout::getWidth ( ) const

noexcept

Returns the maximum width of the content.

getHeight()

float TextLayout::getHeight ( ) const

noexcept

Returns the maximum height of the content.

getNumLines()

int TextLayout::getNumLines ( ) const

noexcept

Returns the number of lines in the layout.

getLine()

Line & TextLayout::getLine ( int index ) const

noexcept

Returns one of the lines.

addLine()

void TextLayout::addLine

(

std::unique_ptr< Line >

)

Adds a line to the layout.

The layout will take ownership of this line object and will delete it when it is no longer needed.

ensureStorageAllocated()

void TextLayout::ensureStorageAllocated

(

int

numLinesNeeded

)

Pre-allocates space for the specified number of lines.

begin() [1/2]

iterator TextLayout::begin

(

)

Returns an iterator over the lines of content.

begin() [2/2]

const_iterator TextLayout::begin

(

)

const

cbegin()

const_iterator TextLayout::cbegin

const

end() [1/2]

iterator TextLayout::end

(

)

Returns an iterator over the lines of content.

const

cend()

const_iterator TextLayout::cend

(

)

const

recalculateSize()

void TextLayout::recalculateSize

(

)

If you modify the TextLayout after creating it, call this to compute the new dimensions of the content.
