Still doesn't seem to work. It would seem that draw_text tries to get something right wrt to the new way of specifying fonts, but the fact remains that get_text_height/width is errant, and possibly on multiple counts:
Specifically, I have recently begun using the OutputScreenlet, which uses these calculations extensively for calculating how many lines of output can be fitted in a screenlet of a given size. Those calculations seem to fail... I have found that the following patch, for whatever reason, gives a better result, even though I don't specify neither an extended font description, nor extend things to include a size parameter, but I'm not sufficiently versed in Python to know why. Something seems amiss, however, and I have seen no ill effects of my uneducated patch... ** Patch added: "Mysteriously working patch for a single screenlet use case that is wrong in current code" https://bugs.launchpad.net/screenlets/+bug/584811/+attachment/2820177/+files/get_text_widt_height.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Screenlets Dev Team, which is subscribed to Screenlets. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/584811 Title: get_text_width doesn't work right and appears twice in drawing.py To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/screenlets/+bug/584811/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~screenlets-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~screenlets-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
