OffsetFontUtil

Builds invisible "negative space" font strings used to position boss-bar dialogue content horizontally without touching the actual text glyphs (so every language keeps rendering in Minecraft's native fonts).

The matching glyphs are declared in em_rsp_defaults/.../font/default.json:

BOX_GLYPH (U+F0F00) renders elitemobs:gui/dialoguebox.png.
A space provider maps U+F0F01..U+F0F0A to advances +1..+512 and U+F0F11..U+F0F1A to advances -1..-512.

Any pixel advance is composed by summing those power-of-two glyphs.

Properties

BOX_GLYPH

public final static String BOX_GLYPH

The dialogue box is wider than Minecraft's 256px bitmap-glyph limit, so it is sliced into two halves rendered side by side.

BOX_GLYPH_RIGHT

public final static String BOX_GLYPH_RIGHT

Functions

boxGlyph

public static String boxGlyph()

The two box halves joined into one renderable string.

pixels

public static String pixels(int advance)

Returns an invisible string whose total horizontal advance equals advance pixels.

shift

public static String shift(String content, int pixelsRight)

Shifts a (boss-bar centered) piece of content horizontally by pixelsRight pixels, independent of the content's own width.

totalAdvance

public static int totalAdvance(String string)

Sums the advances of the offset glyphs in a string (other characters are ignored).
