💖 al_draw_textf 💖

okay so this page lives in the Library Functions Manual and it's part of the Allegro 5 API — we're folding that manual-name realness in right here at the top, bestie. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

al_draw_textf — Allegro 5 API

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <allegro5/allegro_font.h>

void al_draw_textf(const ALLEGRO_FONT *font, ALLEGRO_COLOR color,
   float x, float y, int flags,
   const char *format, ...)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

It's formatted text output, using a printf() style format string. That's the whole vibe. 💅

All parameters have the same meaning as with al_draw_text(3) otherwise. Like, every single one — no secret extra behavior, no cap. 🫶

lowkey iconic: al_draw_textf is literally the formatted-output sibling situation, and the rest of the parameters stay exactly as they are in al_draw_text(3). 😭
