glXUseXFont
glXUseXFont
: create bitmap display lists from an X font.
C Specification
void glXUseXFont(
Font font,
int first,
int count,
int listBase)
Parameters
font
Specifies the font from which character glyphs are to be taken.
first
Specifies the index of the first glyph to be taken.
count
Specifies the number of glyphs to be taken.
listBase
Specifies the index of the first display list to be generated.
Description
glXUseXFont generates count display lists, named listBase through li count - 1,
each containing a single glBitmap command. The parameters of the glBitmap command
of display list li i are derived from glyph first + i. Bitmap parameters xorig,
yorig, width, and height are computed from font metrics as descent - 1, lbearing, rbearing
- lbearing, and descent, respectively. xmove is taken from the glyph’s width
metric, and ymove is set to zero. Finally, the glyph’s image is converted to the
appropriate format for glBitmap.
Using glXUseXFont may be more efficient than accessing the X font and generating the
display lists explicitly, both because the display lists are created on the server without
requiring a round trip of the glyph data, and because the server may choose to delay the
creation of each bitmap until it is accessed.
Empty display lists are created for all glyphs that are requested and are not defined in
font. glXUseXFont is ignored if there is no current GLX context.
Errors
•
BadFont is generated if font is not a valid font.
•
GLXBadContextState is generated if the current GLX context is in display-list
construction mode.
•
GLXBadCurrentWindow is generated if the drawable associated with the current
context of the calling thread is a window, and that window is no longer valid.
