Package Exports
- font-atlas-sdf
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (font-atlas-sdf) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
font-atlas-sdf 
Populate a <canvas> element with a font texture atlas – can be used to quickly generate SDF (Signed Distance Field) fonts. SDF is the most efficient way to draw text in WebGL, see article. For bitmap fonts see font-atlas.
Usage
canvas = fontAtlas(options?)
Populates and returns a <canvas> element with a font texture atlas. Takes
the following options:
| Property | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
canvas |
New canvas | use an existing <canvas> element. |
font |
16px sans-serif |
the font family to use when drawing the text. Can be a css font string or an object with font properties: size, family, style, weight, variant, stretch. |
shape |
[512, 512] |
an array containing the [width, height] for the canvas in pixels. |
step |
[32, 32] |
an array containing the [width, height] for each cell in pixels. |
chars |
[32, 126] |
may be one of either: a string containing all of the characters to use; an array of all the characters to use; an array specifying the [start, end] character codes to use. |
radius |
size × 1.5 | affects the "slope" of distance-transform. |
align |
'optical' |
align symbol vertically by bounding box rather than font baseline. Available values: 'optical' for center of mass alignment (see optical-properties), 'bounds' for bounding box alignment or false to use font alignment. |
fit |
0.5 |
normalize glyph sizes to cover same part of size. Can be a number or bool, eg. 0.5 covers half of size, 1 fits to the full size and false disables fit. |
