Useful Tools and Components

This is just the TextLayout class wrapped as a Component, for easier implementation of blocks of text in dialogs.

[code]class TextComp : public Component,
public TextLayout
{
public:
TextComp()
: m_Just(Justification::centredLeft), m_Font(15.0f), m_bBalance(false)
{}

TextComp(const TextComp& other)
    : TextLayout(other), m_Just(Justification::centredLeft), m_Font(15.0f), m_bBalance(false)
{}

TextComp(const String& text)
    : TextLayout(text, Font(15.0f)), m_Just(Justification::centredLeft), m_Font(15.0f), m_bBalance(false)
{}

TextComp(const String& text, const Font& font)
    : TextLayout(text, font), m_Just(Justification::centredLeft), m_Font(font), m_bBalance(false)
{}
