'Clip' functionality drawcolortext?

[laserlaser]

Hi,

I have edit Aibo's DrawColorText 1.5 years ago.

function dxDrawColorText(str, ax, ay, bx, by, color, scale, font, alignX, alignY,clip,wordBreak,postGUI) 
    --local maxWidth = bx-ax 
  
    local strAdded = 0 
    if str:sub(1,1) ~= " " then 
        str = " "..str 
        strAdded = 1 
    end 
        if alignX then 
        if alignX == "center" then 
          local w = dxGetTextWidth(str:gsub("#%x%x%x%x%x%x",""), scale, font) 
          ax = ax + (bx-ax)/2 - w/2 
         -- maxWidth = bx-ax 
        elseif alignX == "right" then 
          local w = dxGetTextWidth(str:gsub("#%x%x%x%x%x%x",""), scale, font) 
          ax = bx - w 
        -- maxWidth = bx-ax 
        end 
      end 
      
      if alignY then 
        if alignY == "center" then 
          local h = dxGetFontHeight(scale, font) 
          ay = ay + (by-ay)/2 - h/2 
        elseif alignY == "bottom" then 
          local h = dxGetFontHeight(scale, font) 
          ay = by - h 
        end 
      end 
        local f = 1 
      local pat = "(.-)#(%x%x%x%x%x%x)" 
      local s, e, cap, col = str:find(pat, 1) 
      local last = 1 
        while s do 
        if cap == "" and col then color = tocolor(tonumber("0x"..col:sub(1, 2)), tonumber("0x"..col:sub(3, 4)), tonumber("0x"..col:sub(5, 6)), 255) end 
        if s ~= 1 or cap ~= "" then 
          local w = dxGetTextWidth(cap, scale, font) 
        --if (w > maxWidth) then 
        --  w = maxWidth 
        --end 
  
        --maxWidth = maxWidth-w 
          if (f == 1) and strAdded == 1 then 
            cap = cap:sub(2) 
            f = f+1 
          end 
            if not clip then 
            clip = false 
            end 
            if not wordBreak then 
                wordBreak = false 
            end 
            if not postGUI then 
                postGUI = false 
            end 
          dxDrawText(cap, ax, ay, ax+w, by, color, scale, font,"left","top",clip,wordBreak,postGUI) 
          ax = ax + w 
          color = tocolor(tonumber("0x"..col:sub(1, 2)), tonumber("0x"..col:sub(3, 4)), tonumber("0x"..col:sub(5, 6)), 255) 
        end 
        last = e + 1 
        s, e, cap, col = str:find(pat, last) 
      end 
      if last <= #str then 
        cap = str:sub(last) 
        local w = dxGetTextWidth(cap, scale, font) 
        --if (w > maxWidth) then 
        --  w = maxWidth 
        --end 
  
        --maxWidth = maxWidth-w 
         
        if not clip then 
            clip = false 
        end 
        if not wordBreak then 
            wordBreak = false 
        end 
        if not postGUI then 
            postGUI = false 
        end 
        if ( f == 1) and strAdded==1 then 
            cap = cap:sub(2) 
        end 
        f = f+1 
        dxDrawText(cap, ax, ay, ax+w, by, color, scale, font,"left","top",clip,wordBreak,postGUI) 
    end 
end 

I noticed now, It doesn't work OMFG! Where is the problem?

Why are you using that? dxDrawText supports HEX codes by default now.

It's old project And

'colorCoded: Set to true to enable embedded #FFFFFF color codes. Note: clip and wordBreak are forced false if this is set.'

I want to use colored text with 'clip' property.

Just read the wiki... https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/DxDrawColorText, it says: It works the same as dxDrawText, except clipping and word-wrapping (not implemented yet).

I think you should just read the my first message. It says:
