nw::font::ResFontBase::GetBaselinePos Member Function

virtual int GetBaselinePos() const;

None.

Returns the number of pixels from the cell top to the baseline.

Gets the baseline position.

This value is used to draw characters without using the nw::font::CharWriter class. The ascent obtained by the nw::font::Font::GetAscent function is used for the normal calculation of the baseline position when drawing text strings.

The baseline position is defined as the number of pixels from the top of the cell in the sheet to the baseline, where the downward direction is taken as positive. The baseline has no thickness and exists between pixels. The baseline position in a cell is the same for all glyphs in a font.
