class
TextGlyph¶ Bases:
TypedReferenceCountA representation of a single glyph (character) from a font. This is a piece of renderable geometry of some kind.

advance¶ Returns the distance by which the character pointer should be advanced after placing this character; i.e. the approximate width the character takes up on the line.

character¶ Returns the Unicode value that corresponds to the character this glyph represents.

getAdvance() → float¶ Returns the distance by which the character pointer should be advanced after placing this character; i.e. the approximate width the character takes up on the line.
-
getCharacter() → int¶ Returns the Unicode value that corresponds to the character this glyph represents.

getClassType() → TypeHandle¶ - Return type
-
getGeom(usage_hint: UsageHint) → Geom¶ Returns a Geom that renders the particular glyph. It will be generated if necessary.
This method will always return a copy of the Geom, so the caller is free to modify it.
- Return type
-
getQuad(dimensions: LVecBase4, texcoords: LVecBase4) → bool¶ Assuming that this glyph is representable as a textured quad, returns its dimensions and UV range. Returns false if it is not representable as a quad, or if it is whitespace.
The order of the components is left, bottom, right, top.
-
getState() → RenderState¶ Returns the state in which the glyph should be rendered.
- Return type
-
hasQuad() → bool¶ Returns true if this glyph contains the definition for a simple quad, rather than a more complex piece of geometry.
You may still call
getGeom()even if this returns true, which will synthesize a Geom for this quad.
-
isWhitespace() → bool¶ Returns true if this glyph represents invisible whitespace, or false if it corresponds to some visible character.
-
property
state¶ Returns the state in which the glyph should be rendered.
