Functions

surface.CreateFont(...)

client gamemodes/catwork/gamemode/core/libraries/cl_fonts.lua:15

Creates a font through cw.fonts:Add, replacing the engine's surface.CreateFont.

Fonts created this way can be resized with cw.fonts:GetSize. A font name that already exists is not created again. The engine function is kept as the global CreateFont.

Parameters

  • ... Any The font name and font data Map, as for the engine function

surface.DrawRotated(x, y, angle, callback)

client gamemodes/catwork/gamemode/core/cl_kernel.lua:214

Runs a drawing callback with everything rotated around a point.

The callback is run in a pcall; its errors are printed rather than raised.

Parameters

  • x Number X position of the rotation origin
  • y Number Y position of the rotation origin
  • angle Number Rotation in degrees
  • callback Function Called with x, y and angle while the rotation is active

surface.DrawRotatedText(text, font, x, y, angle, color)

client gamemodes/catwork/gamemode/core/cl_kernel.lua:150

Draws text rotated around its top-left corner.

Parameters

  • text String The text
  • font String Font name
  • x Number X position
  • y Number Y position
  • angle Number Rotation in degrees
  • color Color Text color

surface.DrawScaled(x, y, scale, callback)

client gamemodes/catwork/gamemode/core/cl_kernel.lua:189

Runs a drawing callback with everything scaled around a point.

The callback is run in a pcall; its errors are printed rather than raised.

surface.DrawScaled(x, y, 2, function(x, y, scale)
  draw.SimpleText('Big', 'DermaDefault', x, y)
end)

Parameters

  • x Number X position of the scaling origin
  • y Number Y position of the scaling origin
  • scale Number Scale factor
  • callback Function Called with x, y and scale while the scaling is active

surface.DrawScaledText(text, font, x, y, scale, color)

client gamemodes/catwork/gamemode/core/cl_kernel.lua:126

Draws text scaled around its top-left corner.

Parameters

  • text String The text
  • font String Font name
  • x Number X position
  • y Number Y position
  • scale Number Scale factor
  • color Color Text color

surface.DrawText(sText)

client gamemodes/catwork/gamemode/core/libraries/sh_lang.lua:259

Draws text, translating its phrases first.

Overrides surface.DrawText so everything drawn with it, such as draw.SimpleText, is translated. The original is kept as surface.OldDrawText.

Parameters

surface.GetTextSize(sText)

client gamemodes/catwork/gamemode/core/libraries/sh_lang.lua:189

Returns the size of a text, translating its phrases first.

Overrides surface.GetTextSize so measured text matches the drawn translation. The original is kept as surface.OldGetTextSize.

Parameters

Returns

  • Number The width
  • Number The height

surface.NoTranslate(bValue)

client gamemodes/catwork/gamemode/core/libraries/sh_lang.lua:176

Turns automatic translation of drawn text and panel text on or off.

Used to keep text such as the chatbox untranslated.

Parameters

  • bValue Boolean true to stop translating, false to translate again
