Hi,
Does anyone know how to apply a black outline to a font?
Failing that, how could I fake it/hack it?
Thanks,
Mike
How to apply an outline to a font?
Moderators: CEGUI MVP, CEGUI Team
Hey,
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately the bold version of the font had different spacing so didn't line up properly.
But it made me realise I could just render the same text behind it 8 times, and offset each a small amount in each direction of the compass. Its not ideal, but it doesn't seem to hurt the framerate, so it'll do

No news on this yet
I do want to revisit fonts again at some stage, because at the moment, while for many purposes things are fine, there are clearly instances where the support is not quite up to scratch. What my revisiting will result in, and whether that will include font outlines, has yet to be determined.
