Struct rusttype::Glyph
[−]
[src]
pub struct Glyph<'a> { // some fields omitted }
A single glyph of a font. this may either be a thin wrapper referring to the font and the glyph id, or it may be a standalone glyph that owns the data needed by it.
A Glyph
does not have an inherent scale or position associated with it. To augment a glyph with a
size, give it a scale using scaled
. You can then position it using positioned
.
Methods
impl<'a> Glyph<'a>
fn font(&self) -> Option<&Font<'a>>
The font to which this glyph belongs. If the glyph is a standalone glyph that owns its resources,
it no longer has a reference to the font which it was created from (using standalone()
). In which
case, None
is returned.
fn id(&self) -> GlyphId
The glyph identifier for this glyph.
fn scaled(self, scale: Scale) -> ScaledGlyph<'a>
Augments this glyph with scaling information, making methods that depend on the scale of the glyph available.
fn standalone(&self) -> Glyph<'static>
Turns a Glyph<'a>
into a Glyph<'static>
. This produces a glyph that owns its resources,
extracted from the font. This glyph can outlive the font that it comes from.
Calling standalone()
on a standalone glyph shares the resources, and is equivalent to clone()
.
