Hi Mark,

So does Apple's text engine use QuickDraw GX or is that only
for text in the graphics environment.

I was at Apples Developer site and found a good link that
describes text justification with QuickDraw GX.

http://developer.apple.com/textfonts/Tools/tooldir/TrueEdit/ Documentation/TE/TE4position.html

I figure Revolution will finally upgrade to the Apples current text engine
so I want to learn everything I can about it now.

thanks,

Hi JB,

Apple doesn't use any character whatsoever. Apple's text engine actually positions the text in a field. Revolution doesn't use this text engine and thus cannot justify text. The same applies to the text engine used in Windows. I really hope that en will soon replace the currently used text engine with the already a decade old but more recent Windows and Mac OS X APIs.

Best regards,

Mark Schonewille
