Hello There,

Is it possible to adapt text position depending on the font style used?

Some fonts like the font presented in the image below, her default axis position not placed on the bottom extremity of the text.
To beter understand see the example below:

I want to automatically get the interval beteween P.1 and P.2 then I add this value to the Y postion of the spline text. To drop it on the floor.

Thanks!

Don't tested but doing axis_Y - BoudingBox_Bottom should work.

For getting the bottom of the bouding box simply do

import c4d
  
def main() :
    world_pos  = op.GetMg().off
    bBox_pos  = op.GetMp()
    bBox_size = op.GetRad()
    local_bottom = c4d.Vector(0,bBox_pos.y - bBox_size.y,0)
    world_bottom = local_bottom + world_pos
    print world_bottom
  
if __name__=='__main__':
    main()

Hi,

just want to add, that GetMp() returns coordinates in local/object space, while GetRad() is actually in world space. So the above solution is probably only correct, if the object is in default orientation and a generic solution might need some additional matrix multiplication.
