ttf letter-spacing

[oddskill]

Hello.

 

When using ttf fonts in Phaser i miss the possibility to add a letter-spacing parameter for the style.

Do i miss something or is that not available ? 

Would be a nice thing to have.

 

best regards

Hello,

It's not available.

 

Here is and example to emulate this feature using canvas:

I know this is an old post but it's still relevant, so here is a little trick I came with if you want something simpler. What I'm doing is taking my original text string and adding hair spaces in between the letters. It might not work for all fonts but it works great with the one I'm using. You can make the letters move further apart by using more hair spaces, em spaces, or another type of space. I copied and pasted from https://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/chars/spaces.html.

var charCopy = '';for (var c = 0; c < chars.length; c++) {	charCopy += chars.charAt(c) + ' '; // hair space}chars = charCopy.substr(0, charCopy.length - 1);
