Legacy GM Font Size

[Heat4Life]

Hello there dude! Is there a 'font size' stuff on the GML? What I meant was Is there a code to customize the size of the current font?

Thanks! All answers would be greatly appreciated!

Fonts are internally stored as images, so you can't alter the font size per se. You can however use draw_text_transformed() which would scale up/down the text. But since that would be scaling up/down instead of resizing, the text might lose quality and look blurry.

The best way to have multiple font sizes is to keep different font resources for different sizes.

If you want to do the scaling method. Scaling down is better in terms of quality.

Or you can duplicate current font change the size and use draw_set_font. But it's long way I think.

Scaling up can yield excellent results if you scale by an integer value.
Scaling down will always result is graphical loss. I would avoid it.
