Notes
tip
- The x and y have different meanings with different PlayerTextDrawAlignment values:
- 1 (left): they are the right-most corner of the box, absolute coordinates.
- 2 (center): they need to inverted (switch the two) and the x value is the overall width of the box.
- 3 (right): the x and y are the coordinates of the left-most corner of the box
- Using font type 4 (sprite) and 5 (model preview) converts X and Y of this function from corner coordinates to WIDTH and HEIGHT (offsets).
- The TextDraw box starts 10.0 units up and 5.0 to the left as the origin (TextDrawCreate coordinate).
- This function defines the clickable area for use with PlayerTextDrawSetSelectable, whether a box is shown or not.
