NAME¶
glutStrokeHeight —
Returns the height of a given font.
LIBRARY¶
OpenGLUT - fonts
SYNOPSIS¶
#include
<openglut.h>
GLfloat
glutStrokeHeight(void
*fontID);
PARAMETERS¶
fontID
A GLUT stroked font identifier.
DESCRIPTION¶
This function reports the height of a font, given by
fontID,
as a global characteristic of that font.

CAVEATS¶
Does
not
report the height used by individual characters. This may limit its usefulness; perhaps we should change it? (And/or add a new function.)
TODO¶
We have discussed adding a "font descender" query. We should go ahead and do it.
