Re: [pygame] freetype problem

Thanks for the answer. While I am at it I noticed that
when using render() and render_to() with a string with trailing
spaces,  one gets trimed of.

Hi,
Thanks for reporting the problem. The freetype module is to be released with Pygame 1.9.2, and is stable except for bug fixes. The Pygame Windows installers are outdated, so this bug may have already been fixed. I will update the installers for next week. Hopefully I can add a x86_64 version as well.

How stable is the freetype module ? I have been running into problems
with it hanging my app completly. The following code should demonstrate
the problem. Pressing ESC and you'll see that it has crashed. However
if you set the underline parameter to 'False' things work nicely.
I am running it on Windows 7.

# -*- encoding: utf-8 -*-
import pygame
from pygame import constants, event, display
from pygame import freetype

pygame.init()
freetype.init()
screen = display.set_mode((300, 200))
display.flip()
screen.fill(pygame.Color('White'))
display.flip()
f = pygame.freetype.SysFont('Times New Roman', 19)
f.underline = True
s, rec = f.render(u'Amazon')
screen.blit(s, (10, 30))
display.flip()

try:
    loop = True
    while loop:
        for ev in event.get():
            if ev.type == constants.QUIT:
                loop = False
elif ev.type == constants.KEYDOWN and ev.key == constants.K_ESCAPE: 
                loop = False
finally:
    freetype.quit()
    display.quit()
