nstream-string-corners

Generic Function

Package: common-graphics

Arguments: stream string start end top-left bottom-left top-right bottom-right

Modifies and returns as multiple values the last four arguments (top-left, bottom-left, top-right, bottom-right) so they are the relative (to the current position) positions of the four corners of the string printed to stream. This is the destructive version of stream-string-corners.

Note: incompatible change in release 6.0: in releases prior to 6.0, when a frame-with-single-child instance was passed to this operator, the operator was actually applied to the child (the result of applying frame-child to the frame-with-single-child instance). In release 6.0, this redirection no longer occurs. If you intend this operator to apply to the frame-child, pass that to this operator rather than the parent. This is a non-backward-compatible-change. See the release notes for more information.
