Wow... Written three years ago and no one told me the Underline Full effect was broken. Well, now it isn't. You can flag the text to be either underlined (only underlines the text drawn) or underline full (which carries over to the end of the window).



EDIT: I forgot to include some minor notes in the instructions that stated that 'full underline' and 'full strikethru' overwrite their normal counterparts. This does not increase the bump value any. But if anyone had downloaded it within the past 20 minutes, I needed to let em know.

Yep, it's been well over a couple of years since I did anything with FontZ.  When you have what you intend, you tend to think... that's IT!   But nope.  There was a touch that needed to be added.

Shadowed text is meant to have a line of shading to the immediate bottom-right edge of the text itself.  However, I cheated and spaced it an extra pixel outward to accommodate for Shadowed text.  But no more.

As of now, the position/spacing for shadowed text is dependent upon whether the text has (or has not) an outline.  If there is no outline, the spacing for the shadow will be tight against the actual print with no weird spacing.  But if there is an outline, the shadow is spaced out another pixel so the shadow is seen behind the outline effect.

A cosmetic bump, but one that I think would be appreciated.

And what of projects using FontZ already? They won't be hampered in any way.
