glutbitmapstring(3) - Linux man page

Name

glutBitmapString - Draw a string of bitmapped characters

Library

OpenGLUT - bitmapfont

Synopsis

#include <openglut.h>

void

glutBitmapString(void *font, const unsigned char *string);

Parameters

font A bitmapped font identifier.

string A NUL-terminated ASCII string.

Description

Draw a string the current OpenGL raster position using a bitmapped font. The raster position is advanced by the width of the string.

The starting raster position is used as the left margin for multi-line strings. Each newline character repositions the raster position at the beginning of the next line.

Nothing is drawn, and the raster position is unaffected when either: - font is not a valid OpenGLUT bitmap font - string is an empty string or NULL pointer - The current OpenGL raster position is invalid
