General

Minecraft:Font

• Added unihex glyph provider.
  • A new glyph provider for reading Unifont HEX files.
    • HEX format describes bitmap font glyphs.
      • Height of every glyph is 16 pixels.
      • Width of glyph can be 8, 16, 24 or 32 pixels.
    • Every line is made of two hexadecimal numbers separated by :.
    • First value describes codepoint - it must have 4, 5 or 6 hex digits.
    • Second value describes glyph as a stream of bits, line by line.
  • When rendering, empty columns on left and right side of glyph are removed.
    • Custom glyph widths can be set with size_overrides.
  • Provider requires two fields:
    • hex_file: Path to ZIP archive containing one or more *.hex files (files in archive with different extensions are ignored).
    • size_overrides: List of codepoint ranges that should have width different that auto-detected (based on empty space in glyph). Fields:
      • from, to: Start and end of codepoint range (inclusive).
      • left, right: Integers describing position of left-most and right-most columns of glyph in range.
        • Any bits in columns outside this range are discarded.
• Added reference glyph provider.
  • New glyph provider can be used to include providers from other fonts.
    • Providers are guaranteed to be loaded only once, no matter how many times they are included.
  • Provider has one field id, that describes other font to be included in currently loaded one.
    • Inclusion is performed after all fonts are loaded, so it includes all providers for a given font defined in all resource packs.
