…apping (BelfrySCAD#1642) New write.scad module with advanced 3D text API for BOSL2: write(text, h, font_size, font, width, height, box, align, valign, line_spacing, letter_space, margin, anchor, spin, orient): - Auto-sizing: without font_size, scales text to fit box - Word wrapping: with font_size + width, breaks at word boundaries - Multi-line: accepts array of strings or string with newlines - Alignment: horizontal (left/center/right) and vertical (top/center/bottom/baseline) - Configurable margin inside box - Full integration with BOSL2 attachable() system get_font_size(font_size, em_size, cap_height, cap_ratio): - Converts between typographic units (font_size, em, cap_height) - Automatically corrects OpenSCAD 0.72 factor Helper functions _wrap_line() and _wrap_words() for recursive word wrapping respecting width limits. Tests covering: get_font_size with 3 units, basic text, multi-line, auto-sizing, wrapping, alignments and attachment. Module not included in std.scad (use: include <BOSL2/write.scad>).

Presumably we don't want to use this given that @amatulic has mostly written a write() module. |

Doesn't address all of #1642 but looks interesting. I never tried Claude for coding. The wrapping doesn't appear to handle proportional fonts. I need to finish this. It's nearly all done (auto-size wrapping to fit a vertical bound still not tested, and the anchoring stuff is not there yet). Right now I'm busy trying to update a model for a $500 contest on Thingiverse, which will take me until Monday, and after that I should be able to work on the write() module. |
