SRL Archive - Jr. Member General Help and Discussion

So I followed the guide to creating a custom font set located here and had no problems. It is all set up and put in a folder located in the Font directory of simba. When I try to run this:

program new;
{$i srl-6/srl.simba}
var
  pnt : TPoint;
begin
  if findText(pnt, ['xam'], [Rev1], intToBox(0, 0, 400, 400)) then
    writeLn('woohoo');
end.

I get this:

Exception in Script: Unknown declaration "Rev1" at line 6, column 30

I think I have to load it somehow but I have no idea how to do that. I tried looking through some SRL files like text.simba but it didn't really help. Help?

GetTextAtExWrap(xs, ys, xe, ye, MinVerticalSpacing, MaxVerticalSpacing, HorizontalSpacing, FontColor,FontColorTolerance,'FontName' );

for example:

GetClientDimensions(w,h);  // so our searching area is whole client
text := GetTextAtExWrap(0, 0, w-1, h-1, 0, 4, 4, clwhite,0,'MyFont' );

@edit:

Now I see your question is SRL related. I don't have SRL6 , but I guess Rev1 should be between ' '

Yeah, I was wondering how to load the font, because it isn't accepting it as a string. It works with the other fonts that come with srl6, so it must mean they are defined or loaded somewhere.

What it says when you put string?

You have to load the font your self, loadFont('mychars') and then in findText put the parameter in string form ['mychars'].

Just to note, do this in the main area, it only needs loading once.
