test doesn t appear
Dec 23rd, 2007, 1:06am  
Dear All

I had test several codes from the typography section: of the book:

"Processing: A Programming Handbook for Visual Designers and Artists" and test it in the following code that Im writing

But when I try to test it on the code that Im writing the text doesnt appear. The font is created with the tool and put it in the data folder. What could be the error?

The code is these one:

PFont font;

void setup() {
 
//ventana
 size(1024, 720);
// tipografia
 font  = loadFont("CorsivaHebrew-22.vlw");
 textFont(font);

// fondo
 background(255);
 noStroke();
 
}

void draw () {

// rectangulo  
 fill (color(103, 101, 88));
 rect(0, 0, 1024, 720);

// elipse azul
 stroke(123);
 fill (color(191, 215, 59, 126));
 ellipse(600, 470, 500, 450);

// elipse amarilla
 stroke(123);
 fill (color(0, 176, 216, 126));
 ellipse(321, 450, 510, 452);

// texto
fill(0);
 text("flicker", random(-100, 100), random(-20, 120));
 

}

Hi,

The code works perfectly. I don't get any error and the text appears on the screen. Sometimes it appears off the screen because you put negative values in your random positions.

Since you get no error, it means that the font gets loaded. Maybe it doesn't know how to display it. Is it a special font?

Try this.
Replace
  Code:
font  = loadFont("CorsivaHebrew-22.vlw");

with
  Code:
font  = createFont("Verdana",20);


Hope it helps

That's something I don't know.
Maybe someone else has the answer.
Cheers!
