al_draw_justified_ustr(3alleg5)
π al_draw_justified_ustr β the Allegro 5 API glow-up π
okay bestie, so this one lives in the Allegro 5 API (that's the 3alleg5 manual section, iykyk) and it's literally just the ~vibes~ cousin of a function you already know. let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
#include <allegro5/allegro_font.h>
void al_draw_justified_ustr(const ALLEGRO_FONT *font,
ALLEGRO_COLOR color, float x1, float x2,
float y, float diff, int flags, const ALLEGRO_USTR *ustr)
no cap, that's the whole signature. every arg stays exactly where it is, we do not move them, we do not rename them, periodt π
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
so the tea is: this is like al_draw_justified_text(3alleg5) β same energy, same justified-text situation β except the text gets handed over as an ALLEGRO_USTR instead of a NUL-terminated char array. π
that's it. that's the difference. it's giving "same function, different string type" and honestly? iconic. if you've got your text chilling in an ALLEGRO_USTR, this is the one you want. β¨
π¦ SEE ALSO π¦
