   ID3DXFont::DrawText: make lines go up instead of down
  Hi, I would like to draw text so that when a new line needs to be made it goes above the previous one. sorry this is confusing but normally it would be like this:1st line2nd line3rd lineand I would like it like this:3rd line2nd line1st lineis this possible?thanks,r_bewick   
  Sadly, I don't think it is possible to do directly with DrawText.  Other than manually using DrawText for each line, reversing the order of the lines in the string before calling DrawText would be your option.   ;  With ID3DXFont not directly, it seems. First, you split your string according to the new-lines and then either either draw each line individually or merge the strings back together in reverse order and draw with one call. I recommend the latter if speed is a concern (only one draw call).Hope that helps.Edit: beaten[smile]   ;  thanks for the replies. your ideas will help me sort it out :)
