Can anybody confirm that SetTextMaxWidth() does nothing?

I'm using this code in 1074:



Has anybody gotten this command to do anything?

It causes the text to wrap if it would be wider than the value set.

X steps forward, Y steps back.

I'll post it on the Google board.

The command doesn't take effect until the next time the text is set, so calling it before SetTextString would have the intended effect. I'll make sure it updates existing next for a future update.

Hi

This code works fine on PC and don't on iOS



On PC, the text wrap.
On iOS, the text is on the same line.

So, I changed my code after reading this page to



On PC, all works fine.
On iOS, I have no text on screen.

Do you have any idea ?

What is y equal to?

What is your virtual width?

I used to hate the thought of governments having orbital mind control satellites,
but now I can't really seem to care.

I found the cause of my problem : I work with release 1076, but I had an old copy of interpreter-ios I used with Xcode

Starting from scratch fix the problem: SetTextMaxWidth works fine.

I can now submit my App to Apple this week-end
