Jens
Hoppe and Ligia-E. Bolz decided to do a FindFontDeluxe that finds all the
fonts on your machine and opens up a window that shows the name of the font displayed
with the font itself. Really cool, check it out!
Yvonne
Schreiber and Nicole Krienkecontinued with their applet work. Then they did some of the 2Dtext, and discovered
the error in the exercise questions that we had last time, and sent in to Sun,
but which still hasn't been fixed. The correct answer to "A font gets its
characteristic look from what?" is not "C. Point size" but "B.
Glyphs". So all of you out there that thought you had 100% - wrong!
Markus Lamer and
Martin Grünherz decided to try making an applet with a picture in the
background and text in the foreground. The problem is, that Java doesn't have
a background and a foreground. You have to do that all yourself....
Michael
F. Rimböck and Jörg
Stehle used as their font Ren & Stimpy instead of boring old Times....
They also tried out the line breaks on Hebrew - and Java does it right, it breaks
on the left and begins on the next right.
Nadine
Wickord and Jan-Hendrick Bender played around with the AffineTransformation,
then they "just" changed the horizontal lines in a clipping area with
vertical lines. Turned out not to be quite as trivial to figure out, but they
got it to work.
