Pebcessing Reference
Processing-like framework for Pebble Smartwatch. Let's sketch a watchface with code!
PFont
Examples
PFont font;
void setup() {
font = loadSystemFont(FONT_KEY_BITHAM_42_LIGHT);
textFont(font);
fill(BLACK);
}
void draw() {
background(WHITE);
text("Hello!", 10, 50);
}
Description
PFont is the font type for Pebcessing. PFont is loaded in two ways, the loadFont() function or the loadSystemFont() function. loadFont() or loadSystemFont() loads a font and textFont() makes the font active.
With loadFont(), you can load a custom font. A TrueType font is available as a custom font. If you'd like to know how to import a font, please read the guide on the Pebble developer website.
