Scaling a shape made with Geomerative

Hi,

I have a problem scaling a shape made via Geomerative.

I used beginShape and endShape to modify a font and I want to modify the x scale and y scale of the result.

Here is my actual code, without the scaling which doesn't work any way.

If any of you have an idea
1. void drawLetter ()
  
  {
  
  if (key == ENTER)
  
  {
  
  nextLine ();
  
  }
  
  else if (key != TAB && key != BACKSPACE && keyCode != SHIFT && keyCode != ALT && keyCode != UP && keyCode != DOWN && keyCode != RIGHT && keyCode != LEFT && keyCode != CONTROL && keyCode != 157 && keyCode != 20)
  
  {
  
  translate (width-(width-50)+letterWidth, height-(height-100)+jumpLine);
  
  // Reset the letter pointer to null
  
  letter = null;
  
  // Create a string from the char
  
  char theLetter[] = {key};
  
  String st = new String (theLetter);
  
  
  
  // Create the letter shape
  
  letter = RG.getText ( st , "Times New Roman.ttf", 80, CENTER);
  
  // Get the points
  
  points = letter.getPoints ();
  
  
  
  if (points != null)
  
  {
  
  for (int i = 0; i < points.length; i++)
  
  {
  
  // Randomly add -1.5 ... 1.5 to each X & Y, on each point
  
  points[i].x += random (1.5)-.75;
  
  points[i].y += random (1.5)-.75;
  
  }
  
  
  
  // Create the shape
  
  beginShape ();
  
  for (int i=0; i<points.length; i++)
  
  {
  
  vertex (points[i].x, points[i].y);
  
  }
  
  endShape ();
  
  }
  
  firstLetterWidth = 40;
  
  letterWidth += firstLetterWidth;
  
  }
  
  }
Thanks

Text re-shaping

Dear all,

I am new into Processing and after a lots of research I didn't find what I am looking for so here I am.

Firstly I want know if it is possible to "re-shape" a font character ( more than only using the initial textSize(), textWidth()...). Basically I want a modify the shape of the character it self may be have some distortion effects, compress it...

Drawing is always better than talking so here is a small drawing of what I try to achieve.

So the first "e" is the original one and obviously the second one the re-shaped.

Basically I want this reshaping to be chose randomly at a particular moment. it will be when the user enter a letter in the first time.

So if any of you have any thoughts about particular project that have already been done in this way it would be really helpful.

Or any tips how I can achieve that?

Thanks
