All Implemented Interfaces:

GGActorCollisionListener, GGBorderListener, GGTileCollisionListener, java.util.EventListener

public class TextActor
extends Actor

Class that implements an actor to display text dynamically. This may be a better choice than displaying text as a sprite image, when the text changes at run-time in many different ways.

Constructor Detail

TextActor

public TextActor(boolean isRotatable,
                 java.lang.String text,
                 java.awt.Color textColor,
                 java.awt.Color bgColor,
                 java.awt.Font font)

Constructs a possibly rotatable text actor that displays the given text with given text and background colors. For transparent background use sRGB color with alpha = 0. The text is horizontally left aligned, vertically center aligned.

Parameters:

isRotatable - if true, the text changes the direction corresponding to the actor's direction

text - the text to display, if null or has length 0, the text actor is completely transparent

textColor - the color of the text

bgColor - the background color of the text field

font - the font used to display the text

TextActor

public TextActor(java.lang.String text,
                 java.awt.Color textColor,
                 java.awt.Color bgColor,
                 java.awt.Font font)

Constructs a unrotatable text actor that displays the given text with given text and background colors. For transparent background use sRGB color with alpha = 0. The text is horizontally left aligned, vertically center aligned.

Parameters:

text - the text to display, if null or has length 0, the text actor is completely transparent

textColor - the color of the text

bgColor - the background color of the text field

font - the font used to display the text

TextActor

public TextActor(java.lang.String text)

Constructs a unrotatable text actor that displays the given text. The text color is black, the background color white/transparent ARGB = (255, 255,255, 0) and the font SansSerif, PLAIN, 8 pixels. The text is horizontally left aligned, vertically center aligned.

Parameters:

text - the text to display, if null or has length 0, the text actor is completely transparent
