al_get_font_line_height(3) Library Functions Manual al_get_font_line_height(3)

NAME
       al_get_font_line_height - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS
	      #include <allegro5/allegro_font.h>

	      int al_get_font_line_height(const	ALLEGRO_FONT *f)

DESCRIPTION
       Returns	the usual height of a line of text in the specified font.  For
       bitmap fonts this is simply the height of all glyph bitmaps.  For true-
       type fonts it is	whatever the font file specifies.  In particular, some
       special glyphs may be higher than the height returned here.

       If the X	is the position	you specify to draw text, the meaning  of  as-
       cent and	descent	and the	line height is like in the figure below.

	      X------------------------
		  /\	     |	      |

		/____\	     ascent   |
