Text transition/zooming

[WPrec]

Is it possible, to zoom a text and especially text with dynamic text?

The scenario is, to zoom into a screen, if a user is detected by a sensor.

There's no built-in way to do this as far as I know. Bitmaps are stored for all the different sizes of text that you need based on font sizes used in your project so those are the only ones you have immediate access to.

You could probably build a buffer with the largest size that your desired text will be and then scale that buffer to different sizes to display on your screen in sequence. This would all be custom and fairly involved. If you have a predefined static image (or a set of them to choose from) that you can use for the zoom sequence it would be easier.

Hi @WPrec​,

We've been working on a feature that will allow text zooming. It's not real-time rendering of text at various sizes but rendering a text to a piece of memory that can be used as input to a texturemapper which can scale and rotate - all using ChromART.
