glutStrokeWidth(3GLUT)                              GLUT                              glutStrokeWidth(3GLUT)



NAME
       glutStrokeWidth  returns  the  width  of a stroke character, glutStrokeLength 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 glutStrokeWidth 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 character 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.

       glutStrokeCharacter(3G), glutBitmapWidth(3G)
