GetAdvance Method




ImGearPDETextFlags value that specifies whether index refers to the character offset from the beginning of the text object or the index of the text run in the text object. Must be either:CHAR -- for a text characterRUN -- for a text runIn addition, set the PAGE_SPACE flag to obtain the advance width in user space. If it is not set, the advance width is in character space.If this flag is not set, this method returns a value that is independent of any sizes, matrices, or scaling, simply adding up the font's raw glyph widths, supplemented only by unscaled character and word spacing.
Index of the character or text run in the text.
Gets the advance width of a character or a text element.
Syntax
'Declaration

Dim index As Integer
Dim value As ImGearPDFFixedPoint
 
value = instance.GetAdvance(options, index)

   int index

public: ImGearPDFFixedPoint* GetAdvance( 
   ImGearPDETextFlags options,
   int index

Parameters

options
ImGearPDETextFlags value that specifies whether index refers to the character offset from the beginning of the text object or the index of the text run in the text object. Must be either:CHAR -- for a text characterRUN -- for a text runIn addition, set the PAGE_SPACE flag to obtain the advance width in user space. If it is not set, the advance width is in character space.If this flag is not set, this method returns a value that is independent of any sizes, matrices, or scaling, simply adding up the font's raw glyph widths, supplemented only by unscaled character and word spacing.
index
Index of the character or text run in the text.

Return Value

ImGearPDFFixedPoint class object indicating the advance width.
Remarks
Advance width is returned in either character space or user space. The advance width is the amount by which the current point advances when the character is drawn.

Advance width may be horizontal or vertical, depending on the writing style. Thus the return value has both a horizontal and vertical component.
