Wrong text positioning?

[sdelaysam]

Hi, @frankinshtein

Working with TTF fonts in Oxygine.
Looks like text positioning is wrong, but text rect calculation is correct.
I'd say that font's descent is ignored.
Please look at screenshot.

Code for drawing text and red rectangle:

_textfield->setSize(getSize()); // <-- size of white background

const Rect& rect = _textfield->getTextRect(); // <-- rect of red overlay
_textrect->setPosition(rect.pos);
_textrect->setSize(rect.size);

0. it is not related with TTF
1. check
   oxygine examples/Demo/Text
   it has all possible combinations demo
2. Do you know about TextField::setVerticalAlign?

[sdelaysam]

0. I'm afraid it is related with how you work with metrics provided by freetype library
1. i did it
2. yes, sure. i'm using VALIGN_MIDDLE. Otherwise red rect won't be vertically aligned.

1. White rect - size of TextField.
2. Rect red - bounds of text itself.

Problem: Glyphs are out of text bounds.

At this moment I don't know what metrick should be used from TTF. Do you know?

in your case could help for example
TextField::setBaselineScale (0.65); it will align text like in your screenshot

Yep, with TextField::setBaselineScale (0.65); works fine!
Not sure about glyph metrics, will let you know if find something.

#115 works fine for me
