15:23.50Constitutionbrlcad: you've worked with freetype/ftgl a bit, right? I'm trying to figure out how newline spacing should work
15:24.01tuponehallo Constitution
15:24.25Constitutionhey :)

15:26.46Constitutionbrlcad: the carriage return and linefeed characters don't seem to have much metrics info (at least in this particular font)... do you know if there is an accepted way of calculating spacing between lines?
15:33.28trepanFTFace::LineHeight() ?
15:38.33*** join/#bzflag mdskpr (~mdskpr@108.25.123.93)
15:39.05brlcadConstitution: yeah, what trepan said iirc will tell you how tall a given fontline needs to be in order to have simple single-spacing
15:39.22brlcadany padding is then up to the application
15:41.03Manu~cook brlcad
15:41.03ibotACTION throws brlcad in a big pan with veggies inside and cooks brlcad on 350 for an hour
15:41.10Manu;)
15:41.15brlcadConstitution: ftgl has layout classes that you can use as well for auto-formatting so you don't have to do things like word wrapping and alignment manually
15:41.38brlcadFTLayout is the base, FTSimpleLayout probably does what you want
15:41.52brlcadhttp://ftgl.sourceforge.net/docs/html/classFTSimpleLayout.html
15:44.38Constitutionok... actually I am not using FTGL, just freetype directly... I thought line spacing must be font-dependent but maybe I was mistaken
15:45.40Constitutionit is easy enough to determine how much space you need between lines, and maybe add some padding scaled to the font size... but I thought there would be a more standardized way of doing it
15:47.29trepanFT_FaceRec.height
15:47.33trepan(freetype)
15:49.52Constitutionah ha
15:50.12Constitutionperfect... thanks trepan
15:53.01brlcadftgl is just sitting on top of freetype, so most of the things it does translates down to freetype fairly direct
15:53.19brlcadat least you can mimic code from ftgl to get the same result
15:58.40Constitutionyeah... I was scratching my head for a while looking for it... just completely didn't think of looking outside the glyph metrics :)
16:00.07trepanwhat are you doing?

22:40.08delusionalthat was weird... I hit the send button on a PM and the URL changes.   for no apparent reason, "http://my.bzflag.org/bb/etcetera" changes to  "http:/stats.my.bzflag.org/bb"..  and i get an error page.
22:41.44delusionalI tried to use the back on my browser, to return to the draft page, but no-go.   I had to start over and it worked the second time
