💖 NAME 💖

Bestie, welcome to the pods::...::Font(3pm) page from User Contributed Perl Documentation — yes, we're in Perl-docs territory, and this one is all about the font object type for SDL_ttf. The actual NAME line is SDL::TTF::Font - Font object type for SDL_ttf. Periodt. 💅

🌈 CATEGORY 🌈

• TTF, Structure — that's the category, no cap.

🎀 METHODS 🎀

🛠️ CONSTRUCTOR 🛠️

Okay so you make one like this, bestie:

my $font = SDL::TTF::Font->new($font_file, $point_size);

my $font = SDL::TTF::Font->new($font_file, $point_size, $face_index);

It loads a file for use as a font, at the size you give it. This can load TTF, OTF and FON files. You can also specify the face index of a font file that contains multiple faces. Iconic behavior, honestly. ✨

Returns: a SDL::TTF::Font object. undef is returned on errors. 😭

Example time — copy it exactly, iykyk:

use SDL::TTF::Font;

my $font = SDL::TTF::Font->new('arial.ttf', 24);
