size_formatted

Get the formatted width and height. This calculates the actual size after restricting the textblock to the current size of the object. The main difference between this and size_native is that the “native” function does not wrapping into account it just calculates the real width of the object if it was placed on an infinite canvas, while this function gives the size after wrapping according to the size restrictions of the object.

For example for a textblock containing the text: “You shall not pass!” with no margins or padding and assuming a monospace font and a size of 7x10 char widths (for simplicity) has a native size of 19x1 and a formatted size of 5x4.

Type :(int w, int h) See :size_native
