Laying Out a Line of Text
In addition to the routines that measure text, QuickDraw text provides additional routines that help you perform the tasks involved in laying out a line of text.
- The
GetFormatOrderprocedure determines the display order of style runs for a line of text containing multiple style runs with mixed directions.- The
VisibleLengthfunction eliminates trailing spaces from the last style run
on the line.- The
PortionLinefunction determines how to distribute the total slop value for
a line among the style runs on that line.
