💖 mdraw_glyph_info(3m17n) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the m17n section of the manual, part 3m17n — and today's main character is mdraw_glyph_info. she's the one who tells you stuff about a glyph. yes, really. that's her whole thing. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

mdraw_glyph_info -

no cap, the description here is literally just a dash. the manpage said "-" and nothing else. she's mysterious like that. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int mdraw_glyph_info (MFrame * frame, MText * mt, int from, int pos,
       MDrawControl * control, MDrawGlyphInfo * info)

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so here's the tea: this function computes information about a glyph. 🫶

The mdraw_glyph_info() function computes information about a glyph that covers a character at position pos of the M-text mt, assuming that the text is drawn from the character at from of mt on a window of frame frame using the mdraw_text_with_control() function with the drawing control object control.

The information is stored in the members of info. ✨

lowkey the vibe here is: you're not drawing anything, you're just asking "hey, what would this glyph be like if you drew it exactly this way?" and she tells you. no rendering, just facts. 😌
