(This function is part of SDL_ttf, a separate library from SDL.)

TTF_SetScript

Set a global script to be used for text shaping.

Deprecated

This function expects an hb_script_t value, from HarfBuzz, cast to an int, and affects all fonts globally. Please use TTF_SetFontScriptName() instead, which accepts a string that is converted to an equivalent int internally, and operates on a per-font basis.

This is a global setting; fonts will favor a value set with TTF_SetFontScriptName(), but if they have not had one explicitly set, they will use the value specified here.

The default value is HB_SCRIPT_UNKNOWN.

Syntax

int TTF_SetScript(int script); /* hb_script_t */

Return Value

Returns 0, or -1 if SDL_ttf is not compiled with HarfBuzz support.

Version

This function is available since SDL_ttf 3.0.0.
