  • top: the absolute Y coordinate of the top left corner of the text

Optional Arguments

  • right: the absolute X coordinate of the right side of the text bounding box. Used for text aligning, clipping and word breaking.
  • bottom: the absolute Y coordinate of the bottom side of the text bounding box. Used for text aligning, clipping and word breaking.
  • color: the color of the text, a value produced by tocolor.
  • scale: the size of the text.
  • font: the dx font to use.

  • alignX: horizontal alignment of the text within the bounding box. Can be "left", "center" or "right".
  • alignY: vertical alignment of the text within the bounding box. Can be "top", "center" or "bottom".
  • clip: if set to true, the parts of the text that don't fit within the bounding box will be cut off.
  • wordBreak: if set to true, the text will wrap to a new line whenever it reaches the right side of the bounding box. If false, the text will always be completely on one line.
