Hmm. Can you explain how you come to this conclusion? I don't
understand the heuristics either (this is one of the many speed-up
tricks left undocumented by David). If you have a cubic equation like
ax³ + bx² + cx + d
my feeling is that `da' corresonds to the cubic term and `db' to the
quadratic one.
To be more precise: Have you done some comparisons (e.g., using a
profiler) or experienced better rendering results if you exchange
those two values?

[ft] distance between characters
Hi, I would like to calculate the distance between one character to another char given a string,while converting to bitmap.How can i get the position of next character inorder to display with the same space as input string is? Could anyone please explain me,how to do this? Thanks rsr___ Freetype mailing list Freetype@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype

FreeType expects characters as input and outputs glyph images. `The same space as input string' is thus meaningless. After some thinking I'm no longer sure at all what you want to know... Please give an example. Werner ___ Freetype mailing list Freetype@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype
