Need help with Character Size in Sprite Fonts

Hi,

Since a dynamically updating text object slows down WebGL on CocoonJS, I started looking into the Sprite Font plugin.

What I immediately notice in the Manual entry is that all characters must essentially be the same size(in order to fit completely into the sprite image).

Does that mean that you can't have different character sizes?

You can use the "Set character width" action. It's explained in the manual.

Oh, I thought it had to be done on font import. Didn't think it'd have to be done inside the Event Sheet.

Do you know if i have the set the individual Character Widths for every layout, or doing once at game startup should be enough for the entire duration of the game?

Still, it's gonna be some work! ^^

Thank you a lot for the help! :)

Setting the character widths in the 'On created' event should fix it without needing any functions or anything else.

This does imply every layout, but you should have a shared event-sheet to deal with this.
