## Detailed Description

The text object.

The text object stores a Latex source representation, which needs to be translated into PDF by Pdflatex before it can be saved as PDF.

There are two types of text objects: labels and minipages. The textType() method tells you which, or use isMinipage().

The dimensions of a text object are given by width(), height(), and depth(). They are recomputed by Ipe when running LaTeX, with the exception of the width for minipage objects (whose width is fixed). Before Latex has been run, the dimensions are not reliable.

The position of the reference point relative to the text box is given by verticalAlignment() and horizontalAlignment().

The text() must be a legal LaTeX fragment that can be interpreted by LaTeX inside `\hbox`, possibly using the macros or packages defined in the preamble.

## accept()

void Text::accept | ( | Visitor & | visitor | ) | const

virtual

Call visitText of visitor.

Implements ipe::Object.

References ipe::Visitor::visitText().

Referenced by ipe::Latex::scanPage().

## addToBBox()

void Text::addToBBox | ( | Rect & | box,
|  | const Matrix & | m,
|  | bool | cp
| ) |  | const

virtual

Extend box to include the object transformed by m.

For objects in a page, don't call this directly. The Page caches the bounding box of each object, so it is far more efficient to call Page::bbox.

Control points that lie outside the visual object are included if cp is true.

If called with an empty box and cp == `false`, the result of this function is a tight bounding box for the object, with a little leeway in case the boundary is determined by a spline (it has to be approximated to perform this operation).

Implements ipe::Object.

References ipe::Rect::addPoint().

## distance()

double Text::distance | ( | const Vector & | v,
|  | const Matrix & | m,
|  | double | bound
| ) |  | const

virtual

Return distance of transformed object to point v. If larger than bound, can just return bound.

Implements ipe::Object.

## snapCtl()

void Text::snapCtl | ( | const Vector & | mouse,
|  | const Matrix & | m,
|  | Vector & | pos,
|  | double & | bound
| ) |  | const

virtual

Compute control point snapping position for transformed object.

Looks only for positions closer than bound. If successful, modify pos and bound. The default implementation does nothing.
