Expand description

Describes the task of laying out text.

This supports mixing different fonts, color and formats (underline etc).

Pass this to crate::Fonts::layout_job or crate::text::layout.

Example:

use epaint::{Color32, text::{LayoutJob, TextFormat}, FontFamily, FontId};

let mut job = LayoutJob::default();
job.append(
    "Hello ",
    0.0,
    TextFormat {
        font_id: FontId::new(14.0, FontFamily::Proportional),
        color: Color32::WHITE,
        ..Default::default()
    },
);
job.append(
    "World!",
    0.0,
    TextFormat {
        font_id: FontId::new(14.0, FontFamily::Monospace),
        color: Color32::BLACK,
        ..Default::default()
    },
);

As you can see, constructing a LayoutJob is currently a lot of work. It would be nice to have a helper macro for it!

Fields

text: String

The complete text of this job, referenced by LayoutSection.

sections: Vec<LayoutSection, Global>

The different section, which can have different fonts, colors, etc.

wrap: TextWrappingfirst_row_min_height: f32

The first row must be at least this high. This is in case we lay out text that is the continuation of some earlier text (sharing the same row), in which case this will be the height of the earlier text. In other cases, set this to 0.0.

break_on_newline: bool

If false, all newlines characters will be ignored and show up as the replacement character. Default: true.

halign: Align

How to horizontally align the text (Align::LEFT, Align::Center, Align::RIGHT).

justify: bool

Justify text so that word-wrapped rows fill the whole TextWrapping::max_width

Implementations

Break on \n and at the given wrap width.

Does not break on \n, but shows the replacement character instead.

Helper for adding a new section when building a LayoutJob.

The height of the tallest used font in the job.
