Text

TEXT* name = { ... }

This defines a formatted text named name. Texts are used to hold string pointer arrays and to display them for menus, messages or dialogs.

Example:

STRING* willkommen_str = "Willkommen";

TEXT* willkommen_txt =	
{
  layer = 1;
  pos_x = 10;
  pos_y = 10;
  size_y = 40;
  offset_y = 0;
  string (willkommen_str,"dies_ist","ein","text");
  flags = CENTER_X | NARROW | TRANSPARENT | VISIBLE;
}

Remarks:

Scene antialiasing settings in the 3D card settings menu can make bitmap fonts look blurry, depending on the 3D hardware and driver version. Use d3d_antialias for scene antialiasing.
The TEXT struct is defined in include\atypes.h.
Use txt_create() for creating a text object at runtime.
