Hi all,
This week I managed to solve the initial difficulties of character border
painting:
- Change the size of the text portion which has border.
(three distinct size attribute: height, ascent and size)
- Part of the top border hanged out from the text portion (use
SwAlignRect)
- Calculating the cursor position and the selection rectangle must be
changed to skip the border. (SwTxtCursor)
- Page breaking uses the height attribute of the text portion, but line
breaking use a distinct method for it. So I have to change either this
method or the call of it. (It works by now, but there might be a better
solution)
Besides this, I started to look up for special cases which behavior are
still bugous.
- Text portions with different font have distinct border. The same problem
at the point of the line break.
- Vertical text ("rotate" the borders)
- Drop caps (It can be a great territory for character border, but it
seems other font effects like underlining/overlining don't work with drop
caps either.)
- Numbering (can have an own style so a character border too)
This week hasn't numerous questions, but so many answers. :)
Best regards,
Tamás
