LIBRARY

SYNOPSIS

10     #include <openglut.h>
11
12     void
13     glutStrokeString(void *fontID, const unsigned char *string);
14

PARAMETERS

16      fontID     A GLUT stroked font identifier.
17
18      string     A NUL-terminated ASCII string.

DESCRIPTION

21     This function draws a  string  in the font indicated by  fontID.   It is
22     almost   equivalent to calling glutStrokeCharacter() on each character in
23     the  string,  successively.  Mostly, it is a convenience function to hide
24     the loop, and to treat \n as a special symbol rather than a normal glyph.
25
26     The first character displays at the current model space origin,  The ori‐
27     gin changes by successive translations.
28
29     The newline character, \n (ASCII LF) is treated as a newline and resets
30     the origin horizontally while advancing the line 1 font-height down the
31     y-axis.
32
33     Does nothing if:
34      -  fontID  is out of range.
35      -  string  is  NULL
36      -  string  is empty
37
38     Unlike glutBitmapString(), there is little performance advantage to using
39     glutStrokeString() as compared with calling glutStrokeCharacter() your‐
40     self for every character.
