ui.measure_string always giving (0.0, 0.0)
-
Any ideas why?
My code is:import ui print ui.measure_string("Doesn't work")
-
'Return the dimensions (width, height) of a string if it was drawn with draw_string().'
If you like take my example and put your line into the draw method. (73.70399475097656, 14.315999984741211) -
Sorry, this is a bug,
ui.measure_string
currently only works when called on the main thread, in a drawing context (e.g. when overriding aView
'sdraw
method). -
@omz, now I understand. Waiting for the new Pythonista with fixes :D

+1 for fixing this bug
