I'm trying to extend the functionalities of VisAD with respect to text
rendering. In particular, I want to be able to:
a) specify the angle at which each character of text is rotated with respect
to the baseline of the text string
b) specify an offset (x, y, z) to adjust the beginning of the string
c) specify a scaling factor to adjust the size of the characters
I'm also building a GUI interface to specify these arguments and select the
desired font.
I've 2 questions with respect to c) above. First, it appears to me that the
variable named "size" in TextControl is used to perform scaling but I'm not
sure. I would appreciate if someone could confirm this. Second, I would
like to know what is the meaning of the variable "autoSize" in TextControl
and its relation to "size", if any.
Thanks,
Sylvain
