What to use when I can't use Font.Draw

-----------------------------------

Because of the fact that Font.Draw cannot read real and int numbers therefore I am looking for a command that is common to Font.Draw that can read both numbers and words.
Any suggestion?

 :(

Font.Draw (intstr (myInt),...)

Check out F10 for Font.Draw() and intstr() and realstr(). I think you'll figure it out.

Don't really get it. Do u have to do the realstr() thing outside or inside of the Font.Draw?

realstr() takes a real number, and converts it into a string. As Clayton already said, look up intsrt() and realstr() in the Turing help section.

It's inside the Font.Draw where you have the text part which would be the beginning of your Font.Draw parameters.



Font.Draw (intstr (variable name), ...)

Here's an other sample


var rNum:real:=3.14159
var iNum:int:=-2
var fn:int:=Font.New("serif")

Font.Draw("the real number is "+realstr(rNum,1)+" and the integer is "+intstr(iNum),5,5,fn,black)
Font.Free(fn)
