settextstyle function in C

Last Updated : 01 Dec, 2021

The header file graphics.h contains settextstyle() function which is used to change the way in which text appears. Using it we can modify the size of text, change direction of text and change the font of text.
Syntax :

void settextstyle(int font, int direction, int font_size); where, font argument specifies the font of text, Direction can be HORIZ_DIR (Left to right) or VERT_DIR (Bottom to top).

Examples :

Input : font = 8, direction = 0, font_size = 5 Output :

Input : font = 3, direction = 0, font_size = 5 Output :

The table below shows the fonts with their INT values and appearance:

Below is the implementation of settextstyle() function :

CPP

// C++ implementation for // settextstyle() function #include <graphics.h> // driver code int main() {  // gm is Graphics mode which is  // a computer display mode that  // generates image using pixels.  // DETECT is a macro defined in  // "graphics.h" header file  int gd = DETECT, gm;  // initgraph initializes the   // graphics system by loading  // a graphics driver from disk  initgraph(&gd, &gm, "");  // location of text  int x = 150;  int y = 150;  // font style  int font = 8;  // font direction  int direction = 0;  // font size  int font_size = 5;  // for setting text style  settextstyle(font, direction, font_size);  // for printing text in graphics window  outtextxy(x, y, "Geeks For Geeks");  getch();    // closegraph function closes the   // graphics mode and deallocates   // all memory allocated by graphics  // system .  closegraph();    return 0; }
