note 112467 added to function.imagettftext

If you need to rotate text around center you can use this function instead of imagettftext_cr() by pillepop2003 that doesn't mantain the same center of the original image (shifting a bit): function imagettftext_center_rotate(&$im, $size, $angle, $x, $y, $color, $fontfile, $text) { // retrieve boundingbox of the non rotated text $bbox = imagettfbbox($size, 0, $fontfile, $text); //calculate the parameters of the line from lowerleft to upperright point $m1 = ($bbox[5]-$bbox[1])/($bbox[4]-$bbox[0]); $q1 = $bbox[1]-($bbox[0]*$m1); //calculate the parameters of the line from upperleft to lowerright point $m2 = ($bbox[3]-$bbox[7])/($bbox[2]-$bbox[6]); $q2 = $bbox[7]-($bbox[6]*$m2); //calculate the rectangle center (intersection of the two lines) $vx = ($q1-$q2)/($m2-$m1); $vy = ($m1*($q1-$q2)/($m2-$m1))+$q1; // retrieve boundingbox of the rotated text $bbox = imagettfbbox($size, $angle, $fontfile, $text); //calculate the parameters of the line from lowerleft to upperright point $m1 = ($bbox[5]-$bbox[1])/($bbox[4]-$bbox[0]); $q1 = $bbox[1]-($bbox[0]*$m1); //calculate the parameters of the line from upperleft to lowerright point $m2 = ($bbox[3]-$bbox[7])/($bbox[2]-$bbox[6]); $q2 = $bbox[7]-($bbox[6]*$m2); //calculate the rectangle center (intersection of the two lines) $nx = ($q1-$q2)/($m2-$m1); $ny = ($m1*($q1-$q2)/($m2-$m1))+$q1; //calculate the x and y shifting needed $dx = $nx - $vx; $dy = $ny - $vy; // new pivotpoint $px = $x-$dx; $py = $y-$dy; //output return imagettftext($im, $size, $angle, $px, $py, $color, $fontfile, $text); } ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.199 Probable Submitter: 78.12.57.214 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.imagettftext.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/112467 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112467/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112467/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112467/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112467/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112467/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112467/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112467 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/112467 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
