GUIFont questions

1. How can I change the size of the BuiltInFont

2. What does the clip parameter do in font->Draw() function.
API quote:

Optional pointer to a rectangle against which the text will be clipped. If the pointer is null, no clipping will be done.

I know what "clip" means, however I don't understant how clipping works in this particular case.

1. Choose a different font
2. It simply clips the drawing region. If you know what clipping means you should get a sense from it. Think of drawing the font and clipping the image.

I'm using fontcourier from the Media folder, the font does appear larger but I still can't see a method to change it's size at runtime.

i don't think that you can change size of font at runtime -- that is because the font is a bitmap file ( but not like TrueType -- vector fonts );

the antidote is to generate all font that you need before runtime. and then use them at runtime. like: courier10px.bmp, courier20px.bmp and so on.
