pixie.height()
Syntax
height(text, width, pt=20)
Description
Returns the height of a Pixie text paragraph() with given txt, width and point size pt. Because baselines in a Pixie paragraph wobble randomly, this command gives some idea of the actual height, with an average deviation of 20%.
Example
pixie = ximport("pixie")
txt += "Pixie was originally a part of the Aunt Hillary code package,"
txt += "a handwriting that looks different each time, contains mistakes,"
txt += "has wobbly baselines and variable color pressure."
print pixie.height(txt, 200)
