NAME
PrintIText -- Print text described by the IntuiText argument.
SYNOPSIS
PrintIText( RastPort, IText, LeftOffset, TopOffset )
A0 A1 D0 D1
VOID PrintIText( struct RastPort *, struct IntuiText *, WORD, WORD );
FUNCTION
Prints the IntuiText into the specified RastPort. Sets up the
RastPort as specified by the IntuiText values, then prints the text
into the RastPort at the IntuiText x/y coordinates offset by the
left/top arguments. Note, though, that the IntuiText structure
itself may contain further text position coordinates: those
coordinates and the Left/TopOffsets are added to obtain the true
position of the text to be rendered.
This routine does window layer clipping as appropriate -- if you
print text outside of your window, your characters will be
clipped at the window's edge, providing you pass your window's
(layered) RastPort.
If the NextText field of the IntuiText argument is non-NULL,
the next IntuiText is rendered as well, and so on until some
NextText field is NULL.
IntuiText with the ITextFont field NULL are displayed in the
font of the RastPort. If the RastPort font is also NULL, the
system default font, as set via the Preferences tool, will be used.
INPUTS
RastPort = the RastPort destination of the text
IText = pointer to an instance of the structure IntuiText
LeftOffset = left offset of the IntuiText into the RastPort
TopOffset = top offset of the IntuiText into the RastPort
RESULT
None
