MDRAW_DEFAULT_LINE_BREAK(3m17n)

✨ NAME ✨

mdraw_default_line_break — bestie, it's the line-breaking math girlie 💅

(yeah the original NAME line is literally just the name and a lil dash, no cap, she's mysterious like that 🫶)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int mdraw_default_line_break (MText * mt, int pos, int from, int to, int
line, int y)

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so. Calculate a line breaking position. That's the whole job, that's the assignment, she ate and left no crumbs ✨

The function mdraw_default_line_break() figures out where to break a line based on the line number line and the coordinate y — and she only really gets called in when a line is too long to fit within the width limit 😭 like the text is simply too much for the box, main character energy overflowing fr.

Let's break down the arg squad, iykyk:

• pos — the position of the character next to the last one that fits within the limit. So like, the very first one that got left out. the one who didn't make the cut 💀
• from — the position of the first character of the line. the beginning, the origin story 🌱
• to — the position of the last character displayed on the line if there were not width limit. hypothetical queen 👑
• line — the line number, and also one of the two things getting reset/incremented (see below, it's giving bookkeeping)
• y — the coordinate, and the other one getting reset/incremented

and here's the glow-up mechanic: line and y get reset to 0 when a line is broken by a newline character, and they get incremented each time a long line is broken because of the width limit. Two different reasons to break, two different vibes, she's tracking both 🧚

💖 RETURN VALUE 💖

This function returns a character position to break the line. That's it. That's the gift. the little index telling you where to slice 🎀
