Hi,
You should be able to get the width of each sprite with the single
letter in???
Maybe mask the stream area out. Start each letter at x -
letterWidth, increase the x after each interval, when the letter reaches
x=0, create & show the next one, add it to your array.
Loop through the array each timer increasing the x position of the
letters, removing them when they reach the other side???
Something like that??/

Hi there, I'm animating some letters that are dynamically created in their
own sprites across the screen as if they are being fired in a stream.
Currently I am using a fixed width font so it's straight forward to find
their final position. My problem is that I need to use a non fixed-width
font and I don't know how to calculate the position of each letter.
Any ideas very gratefully received!
Thanks :)
Ali
