Re: Newline in GD?

I'm pretty sure you have to implement line breaks yourself with multiple calls to ->string, e.g.

my $y = 12;
$img->string(gdSmallFont, 10, $y, $line1, $color);
$y += $delta;
$img->string(gdSmallFont, 10, $y, $line2, $color);
$y += $delta;
$img->string(gdSmallFont, 10, $y, $line3, $color);
...

Good to know - I was looking at the example for $img->stringFT and saw they were using newlines (\r\n) in their example code, so I just assumed (bad) that the string call would as well. (as I noted, the TT load fails for me on the server with an out of memory exception, so my first guess is that it is not setup to handle true type, so the stringFT is out - which is what lead me to the regular string route. I will just do it the longer way as you say, but was hoping I was wrong and missing something that would do it - thanks for the fast reply! ------------------------------------------------------------------- There are some odd things afoot now, in the Villa Straylight.
