Hi, The normal text object is a2dText, and you can set an a2dFont based on wxFont, samples enough to find how to that I think. Unless you want to use ttf fonts, which really need a file, same as the chr fonts.
If you want that you need to push the executable directory to the FontPathList (see e.g. vdraws.cpp.) Regards, Klaas On 12/13/2016 04:42 PM, Mike Gibson wrote: > ello, > > I'm trying to simply put text on a canvas, and have found the class > a2dTextGDS.

The executable directory doesn't work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Wxart2d-users_dev mailing list Wxart2d-users_dev@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wxart2d-users_dev
