Is there a way to determine the display length of a given string (in pixels) based on the currently selected font in (C++) wxWidgets?
For example if I print out the string ‘Speed:’ and want to put 10 pixels between the ‘:’ and the value about to follow, I need to know how long the ‘Speed:’ string was. Is there a way to determine this? I can’t seem to find anything in the API documentation but I may be missing something.
Maybe http://docs.wxwidgets.org/stable/wx_wxdc.html#wxdcgettextextent ?
Note: I’m not a wxWidgets user.
