glutStrokeWidth(3GLUT)               GLUT               glutStrokeWidth(3GLUT)

NAME

       glutStrokeWidth  returns  the  width of a stroke character, glutStroke-
       Length returns the length of a stroke font string.

SYNTAX

       int glutStrokeWidth(void *font, int character);
       int glutStrokeLength(void *font, const unsigned char *string);

ARGUMENTS

       font      Stroke  font  to  use.   For  valid  values,  see  the  glut-
                 StrokeWidth description.

       character Character to return width of (not confined to 8 bits).

       string    Text string (8-bit characters), nul terminated.

DESCRIPTION

       glutStrokeWidth returns the width in modeling units of a stroke charac-
       ter in a supported stroke font. While the width of characters in a font
       may  vary  (though  fixed  width fonts do not vary), the maximum height
       characteristics of a particular font are fixed.

       glutStrokeLength returns the length  in  modeling  units  of  a  string
       (8-bit  characters).   This  length  is  equivalent  to summing all the
       widths returned by glutStrokeWidth for each character in the string.
