How to print a variable as text?

[Jorik]

Hi,

i´m saving a value in a variable :

Code: Select all

s32 ponts = 15

.

This value is increasing constantly.

I want to draw always the actual value on the screen (not in the console).

I use this to draw text:

Code: Select all

gui::IGUIFont* font = Device->getGUIEnvironment()->getBuiltInFont();
	
if(font)
	{
		
		font->draw(L"want to draw a value but dont know how",core::rect<s32>(130,10,300,200),
                                     video::SColor(255,255,255,255));

.


I have two questions now:

How can i display the variable value?
How can i choose another size for the font?


Thanks for every help

How can i display the variable value?

You can use something like

Code: Select all

font->draw(irr::core::stringw(yourVariable).c_str(), ...);

How can i choose another size for the font?

You need to use the font tool and make one.
