al_get_text_dimensions(3)   Library Functions Manual   al_get_text_dimensions(3)

NAME
     al_get_text_dimensions - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS
	    #include <allegro5/allegro_font.h>

	    void al_get_text_dimensions(const ALLEGRO_FONT *f,
	       char const *text,
	       int *bbx, int *bby, int *bbw, int *bbh)

DESCRIPTION
     Sometimes,  the  al_get_text_width(3)  and al_get_font_line_height(3) func-
     tions are not enough for exact text placement,  so  this  function  returns
     some additional information.

     Returned variables (all in pixels):

     * x, y - Offset to upper left corner of bounding box.

     * w, h - Dimensions of bounding box.

     Note  that  glyphs may go to the left and upwards of the X, in which case x
     and y will have negative values.

SEE ALSO
     al_get_text_width(3), al_get_font_line_height(3), al_get_ustr_dimensions(3)
