Hi folks,
i normaly use the ***** DrawText(xw,yw,"Hello world ") ***** command.
Is is possible to make the size of the signs bigger?
for example: twice the size?

Load a font with the desired size, then use it:

Code: Select all

LoadFont(0, "Arial", 24)
DrawingFont(FontID(0))
DrawText(xw,yw,"Hello world ")

Hi Caronte 3D,
Yes, it works . thank you very much,

To use the default system font, specify #PB_Default when using DrawingFont():

Code: Select all

DrawingFont(#PB_Default)
