GLUTBITMAPHEIGHT(3)              Local Manual              GLUTBITMAPHEIGHT(3)

NAME
     glutBitmapHeight -- Return the height of a given font, in pixels.

LIBRARY
     OpenGLUT - bitmapfont

SYNOPSIS
     #include <openglut.h>

     int
     glutBitmapHeight(void *font);

PARAMETERS
      font     A bitmapped font identifier.

DESCRIPTION
     Return the line-to-line vertical spacing (in pixels) between lines of a
     bitmapped  font.

     Returns 0 if  font  is invalid.

CAVEATS
     Does  not   report the height used by individual characters.  This may
     limit its usefulness.  (Compare with other font-metric queries.)

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