<gtext> </> Graphics text

 

Renders a GIF image of the contents.

Note: If the background and text colors are not set in the <body> tag of the page, the bg and fg attributes must be set, otherwise the <gtext> tag will only render a "Please reload this page" message.

alpha=path
Use the specified image as an alpha channel, together with the background attribute.

alt=string
Sets the alt attribute of the generated {img} tag. By default the alt attribute will be set to the contents of the <gtext> tag.

background=path
Specifies the image to use as background.

bevel=width
Draws a bevel box.

pressed
Inverts the direction of the bevel box, to make it look like a button that is pressed down.

bg=color
Tells the <gtext> tag what the background color of the page is. This is used for anti-alias purposes. The module can be configured to try to find out this by itself, by parsing at appropriate HTML tags.

black
Use a black, or heavy, version of the font, if available.

bold
Use a bold version of the font, if available.

border=width, color
Draws a border around the text of the specified width and color.

fadein=blur, steps, delay, initialdelay
Generates an animated GIF file of a fade-in effect.

fg=color
Sets the color or the rendered text. The module can be configured to try to find out an appropriate color by parsing HTML tags.

fs
Apply floyd-steinberg dithering to the resulting image.

fuzz=color
Apply a glow effect.

ghost=dist, blur, color
Apply a ghost effect. Cannot be used together with shadow or magic.

glow=color
Apply a glowing outline around the text.

href=URL
Link the image to the specified URL. The link color of the document will be used as the default foreground rather than the foreground color.

italic
Use an italic version of the font, if available.

light
Use a light version of the font, if available.

magic=message
Used together with the href attribute to generate a JavaScript that will highlight the image when the mouse is moved over it.

magic_attribute=value
Same as for any <gtext> attribute, except for the highlighted image.

magicbg=color|path
Same as the background attribute, except for the highlighted image.

maxlen=number
Sets the maximum length of the text that will be rendered into an image, by default 300.

mirrortile
Tiles the background and foreground images around x-axis and y-axis for odd frames, creating seamless textures.

move=x, y
Moves the text relative to the upper left corner of the background image. This will not change the size of the image.

nfont=font
Use this font. If no font is specified, the define nfont will be used, or the default font, if there is no define.

notrans
By default, the background of the image is set as a transparent color. This option overrides that behavior.

opaque=percentage
Generate text with this amount of opaqueness. 100% is default.

quant=number
Use this number of colors in the generated image. For GIF images, fewer colors implies smaller images but also aliasing effects. It is advisable to use powers of 2 to optimize the palette allocation.

rescale
Rescale the background to fill the whole image.

rotate=angle
Rotates the image this number of degrees counter-clockwise.

scale=float
Scale the font this much.

scolor=color
Use this color for the shadow. Used with the shadow attribute.

scroll=width, steps, delay
Generate an animated GIF image of the text scrolling.

shadow=intensity, distance
Draw a drop-shadow with the specified intensity and distance. The intensity is specified as a percentage.

size=width, height
Set the size of the image.

spacing=number
Add space around the text.

split
Generate a separate GIF image out of each word. This will allow the browser to word-wrap the text, but will disable certain attributes like magic.

split=character
Split the string also at each occurrence of the character.

talign=left eight center
WebLayout Templates error: Only block tag names allowed in "tmplinsertblock". Offending tag name "data".

textbelow=color
Place the text in a colored box.

textbox=opaque, color
Draw a box with an opaque value below the text of the specified color.

texture=path
Uses the specified images as a field texture.

tile
Tiles the background and foreground images if they are smaller than the actual image.

turbulence=frequency, color; frequency, color; frequency, color
Apply a turbulence effect.

verbatim
Allows the gtext parser to not be typographically correct.

xpad=percentage
Increases padding between characters.

xsize=number
Sets the width.

xspacing=number
Sets the horizontal spacing.

ysize=number
Sets the height.

yspacing=number
Sets the vertical spacing.
