I actually needed this feature in my app, which coincidentally, was also rendering musical symbols. I took the brute force approach: I draw each symbol (which is actually multiple glyphs composed together) on a white buffer and then see how many pixels of white border there are. There are a small number of symbols so I can easy cache the sizes. It was a real pain to implement but seems to mostly be working. _______________________________________________ fltk-dev mailing list fltk-dev@easysw.com http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk-dev
