textWidth() Different fonts same width? Nov 23rd, 2008, 3:12pm   Hi. I'm writing a simple sketch that displays all the fonts installed on my computer and places the font's name on the x-axis according to the width of a sample-string. The problem is, that different font-weights of a font get the same x-position for example Garamond regular and Garamond semibold and so on. Code: PFont font; [...] textFont(font,30); text(testString,x,y); float myWidth = textWidth(testString); [...] text(fontname,myWidth,20); [...]
