GLUTSTROKEHEIGHT(3)

NAME
glutStrokeHeight - Returns the height of a given font.

LIBRARY
OpenGLUT - fonts

SYNOPSIS
#include <openglut.h>
GLfloat
glutStrokeHeight(void *fontID);

PARAMETERS

fontID A GLUT stroked font identifier.

DESCRIPTION
This function reports the height of a font, given by fontID,

as a global characteristic of that font.

Returns 0 if fontID is invalid.

CAVEATS
Does not report the height used by individual characters. This may limit its usefulness; perhaps we should change it? (And/or add a new function.)

TODO
We have discussed adding a "font descender" query. We should go ahead and do it.
